Intermediate Network Recommendations
Intermediate network configurations do not include segmentation, but do require
switch re-configuration and conform to the
General Recommendations
on page 6. No
Segmentation means that data, replication, and management traffic may use the same
network. If your network policies require separation of replication or management
traffic, continue to the
Advanced Network Recommendations
on page 8.
