Network Connections
Depending on your desired Network Topology, the following network configuration examples show how to make the physical
network connections to support that topology.
Note: Later, be sure to make the appropriate port settings that correspond to these network connections.
One Shared Network
In this configuration:
• Management and data paths share the same subnet or network
• Any traffic can use any type of port
In the following example, the eth0a port on each controller provides the management path (red cables). The eth2b port on
each controller provides the data path (blue cables).
The management and data ports connect to the same network switch. The host also connects to the switch. This is a very
simple network, but it still has redundant controllers to provide high availability.
Note that only one management connection and one data connection are shown. You can add more connections and use
different ports as needed.
