4. Collector Networking Environment
The Collector appliances use multiple networks for service and inter-node communication. You can
deploy networks as:
•
Three independent physical switches, or
•
Multiple independent VLANs on the same switch fabric
The ADMIN, DB, and SYNC switches or VLANs must be different broadcast domains. iLO and
Admin networks may intersect.
Use the tables below to identify the count and type of switch ports necessary to support the number
of appliances for your deployment.
Admin Network
The Admin Network connects the Collector Controller to the Fidelis Network sensors and
CommandPost/K2 systems. Also connects the Collector XA nodes to the CommandPost/K2.
