I have two servers equipped with 4-port 10Gb network cards. They share storage based on HBA cards. I also have two CISCO switches stacked together.
Please provide the best configurations to ensure throughput and redundancy. Should I separate the cards for different types of traffic, or create one vSwitch with VLANs, or multiple vSwitches?
How should I connect the cards to CISCO? Should I use LAG (Link Aggregation Group)?
