Dell VxRail Network Planning Guide

Configure the Network for VxRail

For the VxRail initialization process to pass validation and build the cluster, configure the adjacent ToR switches and upstream network before you plug in the VxRail nodes and power them on.

This section describes the tasks for the data center network to prepare for the VxRail initial implementation. You can use the information in Appendix C: VxRail Cluster Setup Checklist for guidance. Follow your vendor documentation for specific switch configuration activities and for best practices for performance and availability.
