Bare Metal UCS Blade vNIC Configuration
When configuring bare metal installation of an OS on a UCS blade, you need to take into consideration the fact that the UCS vethernet ports are always trunk interfaces.. To essentially make a vNIC into an "access" port, you would need to configure 1 VLAN per vNIC, with the Native VLAN checkbox checked so that packets set across that trunk are untagged.
