We used 25 GbE networking for this validation effort. The VLAN configurations used in the testing were as follows:

• VLAN configuration:
  • Management VLAN: Configured for hypervisor infrastructure traffic—L3 routed using core switch
  • VDI VLAN: Configured for VDI session traffic—L3 routed using core switch
  • VMware vSAN VLAN: Configured for VMware vSAN traffic—L2 switched only using ToR switch
  • vMotion VLAN: Configured for Live Migration traffic—L2 switched only, trunked from Core (HA only)
  • VDI Management VLAN: Configured for VDI infrastructure traffic—L3 routed using core switch
• A VLAN iDRAC was configured for all hardware management traffic—L3 routed using core switch
