iDRAC Network vmkernel created on standard vswitch during install?
Hi,
After going through an install of VxRail, I noticed that there was a standard vswitch created (in addition to my normal production dvswitch) that has a iDRAC Network VMkernel port with a random IP address. There is one physical adapter on this switch called vusb0. Can anyone explain to me what this is used for and/or if it can be deleted as it was created in error?
See screenshot for example

That should be there. I don't know all the details around it but, it has something to do with the way PTagent communicates from ESXi to the idrac. You don't want to delete it.
