Default network I/O control (NIOC)

Default network I/O control (NIOC)

  • VxRail will enable network I/O control on the virtual-distributed switches and configure custom Network I/O Control (NIOC) settings for the following network traffic types. The settings depend on whether the VxRail cluster was deployed with either:

    • Two Ethernet ports per node that are reserved for the VxRail cluster
    • Four Ethernet ports that were reserved for the VxRail cluster
