Data cables are connected to two switches for high availability, via the nodes' 10 GbE,
25 GbE, or 100 GbE ports. Management interfaces are connected to a switch on a
separate management network using onboard and BMC (iDRAC) ports.
In ESXi environments, the AMS/discovery server must be on the same Layer 2
network as the ESXi management ports. This allows the use of the Broadcast protocol
for initial IP address configuration.
The BMC (iDRAC) IP address can reside on a different subnet and/or VLAN, and the
only requirement from the BMC (iDRAC) side is that the AMS (when used) must have
a routable IP Path to the BMC (iDRAC) IP address on the node.
The default configuration used in simple mode deployment follows the following rules
of thumb:
l
If there is a 1G NIC onboard, the left one of the pair is always used for the
management network.
l
If there are two PCI cards or more, the lowest slot number is used for allocation of
data ports. For example, if slots 2, 3 and 5 are populated with NICs, AMS uses
slots 2 and 3, and the left port on each PCI card is used for data.
Note
You can always change the default using advanced deployment mode in AMS.
l
If there is only one NIC, the left 10G onboard port is used for the data network.
