11 * 24 or 48 Port TOR Switch
12 * NICs - Combination of 1GE and 10GE based on network topology options (per server can be on-board or use PCI-e)
13 * Connectivity for each data/control network is through a separate NIC. This simplifies Switch Management however requires more NICs on the server and also more switch ports
14 * BMC (Baseboard Management Controller) for lights-out mangement network using IPMI (Intelligent Platform Management Interface)
18 * Option I: 4x1G Control, 2x10G Data, 48 Port Switch
20 * 1 x 1G for lights-out Management
21 * 1 x 1G for Admin/PXE boot
22 * 1 x 1G for control-plane connectivity
24 * 2 x 10G for data network (redundancy, NIC bonding, High bandwidth testing)
26 * Option II: 1x1G Control, 2x 10G Data, 24 Port Switch
28 * Connectivity to networks is through VLANs on the Control NIC
29 * Data NIC used for VNF traffic and storage traffic segmented through VLANs
31 * Option III: 2x1G Control, 2x10G Data, 2x10G Storage, 24 Port Switch
33 * Data NIC used for VNF traffic
34 * Storage NIC used for control plane and Storage segmented through VLANs (separate host traffic from VNF)
35 * 1 x 1G for lights-out mangement
36 * 1 x 1G for Admin/PXE boot
37 * 2 x 10G for control-plane connectivity/storage
38 * 2 x 10G for data network
40 Documented configuration to include:
42 - Subnet, VLANs (may be constrained by existing lab setups or rules)
44 - Types of NW - lights-out, public, private, admin, storage
45 - May be special NW requirements for performance related projects
