Hi,
Im planning to make a POC soon and I want to move away from classic SAN environment due to large costs, therefore VSAN came up as an option, on paper everything looks great and should be enough for our performance and HA needs.
For our "classic" vsphere infrastructure we used to set the physical ports on which the uplinks are connected as trunk ports, my question is in regards to VSAN 6.6 as it moved from multicast to unicast, what do I need to tell our network guys to set on the physical ports in order to have VSAN traffic? I can`t find what are the settings are physical sw.
I want to have a 3 node cluster all flash set at RAIN/RAID 1 with two 10 GBs NIC Team per host dedicate for VSAN traffic.
Thanks.
