Use the Network Configuration Table when planning and configuring your 25GbE, 10GbE, or 1GbE switches for use with your
VxRail.
This table lists the network parameters that are configured during
VxRail setup. Use the table before setup to plan your configuration. Work with your sales representative or partner to use the table during setup to keep track of your entries.
