NFS best practice

Hi,

So for adding NFS storage to vSphere I found the below best practices, if anyone can confirm or add to it...

Add a new vmkernel on each host in the same subnet as the NFS server

Create a new VLAN and a new Distributed PortGroup mapped to it

Connect the vmkernel to the new Distributed PortGroup

A question I have, should NFS have its own vSwitch/dvSwitch or it is fine to have it connected to a Distributed PortGroup on the same dvSwitch/physical ports the VM's are using?

Thanks
