  • Page 35: Data Network Connectivity For Lyve Rack R1

    7.1.1 | Data Network connectivity for Lyve Rack R1 Lyve Rack R1 is designed to be highly available when client I/O is directed to the Cluster IP over data network. The implementation relies on multicast, which has some functional implications and may not be allowed in all deployment environments.
  • Page 36: Management Network

    Note Lyve Rack R1 does not support mixed mode IP configuration, that is if you chose to configure static virtual IP addresses for the management network you must configure static virtual IP addresses for the public data as well. Configuring one network using static virtual IP addresses and another as DHCP-assigned IP addresses is not supported.
  • Page 37: High-Speed Data Network

    Lyve Rack R1 Installation Guide 7.3 | High-speed data network Just as for management network, Public Data network can be configured either using static virtual IP addresses or DHCP-assigned IP addresses. Static virtual IP configuration: User must be aware of IP addresses and IP of the gateway.
