NETWORK ARCHITECTURE 

The networks used for this test were dedicated 1Gb Ethernet. This network was split into three VLANs. 
One VLAN was for administrative/public traffic and CIFS access, and the other two were non-routable 
VLANs designed for storage and VMotion traffic.  All virtual desktops were assigned an IP address using 
a DHCP server.  

 

The VMware ESX Server’s networking configuration consisted of ten 1Gb Ethernet Controllers (or NICs). 
Two were configured as NIC Teaming ports for NFS traffic and assigned to a pre-defined VMkernel port 
used for NFS access with a pre-defined IP address on the non-routable VLAN (i.e. 192.168.1.x).  Two 
NICs were configured as NIC Teaming ports for VMotion traffic and assigned to a pre-defined, VMotion 
enabled VMkernel port with a pre-defined IP address on another non-routable VLAN used solely for 
VMotion traffic (i.e. 192.168.0.x).  Two NICs were configured as NIC Teaming ports for the Service 
Console and assigned to the administrative VLAN. The last four NICs were also configured as NIC
