I'm looking for some general recommendation to help design virtual network for the below spec / requirements and hoping you can share your thoughts.
- 3 host VSAN cluster (may be another one later to be added so total of 4)
- Each host has 2 physical NIC with dual ports of speed 1Gbe
- 1 NIC with dual port is onboard
- 1 NIC is Broadcom 5720 Dual Port 1GbE BASE‐T Adapter
- 1 flat /24 routable network with VLAN 222
- TOR has 2 Cisco Switch (access switches) and these are connected to Core Switches using LACP
What would be your recommendation for the virtual network design ...
- if redundancy is preferred
- if performance is preferred
hopefully, no full time resource needed to manage this infrastructure on a daily basis so simplicity is also a factor 🙂
Some high level design elements in your response are much appreciated e.g. single VDS with 4 PG (vmotion, vsan, mgmt and vm), seperate TCP/IP stack, non-routeable L2 network for vmotion and vsan etc. basic NIC teaming or advanced NIC teaming with LCAP etc.
Appreciate your help on this.
Thanks.
