1.2.6 Basic requirements
 The customer's IP gateway address and subnet mask.
 In-band or out-of-band switch management.
 The IP addresses for switch management.
 The number and type of Ethernet ports required for VxRail node connectivity in a single or dual-
switch configuration.
 The number and type of Ethernet ports for the S4148-ON inter-switch links (ISLs) used to
interconnect the switches.
 The number and type of Ethernet ports for the S4148-ON network uplinks used to connect the
switches to the customer’s existing network.
There are references to in-band and out-of-band management in this deployment guide. This refers to
whether switch routed management traffic is sent to an out-of-band management port on the switch see
Figure 17 or whether management traffic is routed in-band to one of the other switch ports.
In addition, successful configuration requires connectivity to and basic knowledge of the customer’s network
