PowerProtect Data Manager 19.10 Administration and User Guide

Virtual network traffic types

PowerProtect Data Manager supports virtual networks for the following traffic types:

Table 1. Traffic typesTraffic types
Type Description
Management Control traffic, typically HTTPS REST API operations; small file transfers, such as logs and update packages; other essential traffic, such as identity provider authentication.
Data Large amounts of customer data, such as backup and restore traffic, cloud tiering, and CloudDR traffic.
Replication DD Boost replication traffic.
Data for Management Components Customer data that is related to management and control operations, such as ServerDR, indexing and searching, replication monitoring, and copy deletion.

Replication traffic flows between protection storage systems. Where required, configure virtual networks for replication traffic directly on the protection storage systems.

The Data for Management Components type carries traffic which relates to management operations but which can contain customer information. Where required, you can separate this traffic from either the Management network, the Data network, or both.

For example, some environments may support different speeds for each network: a 1 Gbps network for management and a 10 Gbps network for data. Other environments may have policies or rules that govern whether customer data can flow across the Management network. Separating the Data for Management Components traffic enables you to optimize flow for security, speed, and other priorities.
