If you are planning on having a setup containing 4 arms or more, creating a LAN Connectivity Policy will help to reduce complexity. Follow the steps below to create this policy:

  1. Select the LAN tab.
  2. Expand Policies.
  3. Expand root.
  4. Select LAN Connectivity Policies.

  5. Click the plus button on the right to create a new policy.

  6. Enter a recognizable Name, for example LM_4vNIC.
  7. Enter a Description.
  8. Click Add to specify a vNIC.
  9. Enter a Name for the vNIC, for example eth 0.
  10. Select the relevant option in the MAC Address Assignment drop-down list.
  11. Select the relevant clients to be on Fabric A.
    Note: To maximize input and output it is best to divide the number of client VLANs and server VLANs between Fabric A and Fabric B. For example, if there are 2 clients VLANs – one should be on Fabric A and the other should be on Fabric B. Similarly, if there are 2 server VLANs – one should be on A and the other on B.
  12. Select a Native VLAN.
  13. Set the MTU to 9000.
    Note: The MTU must have the same value as it does in the Priority of the selected QoS Policy.
  14. Expand the Operational Parameters section.
  15. Select the relevant Adapter Policy.
  16. Select the relevant QoS Policy.
  17. Click OK.
  18. Click OK again.
  19. Add the remaining vNICs needed.
