Virtual Switch Config for 2 Node Direct Connect

I'm part way through configuring my 2 node direct connect vSAN environment for my home lab, and am curious as to what vswitch settings others are using. (I'll personally be using 3 hosts via the L2 WTS method)

I haven't been able to find any official guidance or best practises for typical vswitch settings.

eg:

Load balancing policy

Notify switches setting

Failback setting

Anyone able to list the settings they are using, or point me to a best practise article?

Thanks!

I'm assuming you're using 2 pNICs connected directly from host to host?

We don't have any different guidance than the normal Design and Sizing / Networking Guides on https://storagehub.vmware.com/

We're not treating 2 Node any different than normal vSAN at this time from a networking perspective.
