The following tables show the network connectivity options that are supported for base connectivity on the onboard adapter cards for each VxRail model series. They also show the available PCIe-based adapter options for the expansion slots on the nodes. Factors such as the VxRail model series selected for the cluster, and the number of CPUs installed per node, drive:
The following networking connectivity rules apply to VxRail nodes:
