NOTE: The Dell SD7000-S (Single or Dual Node) server requires two management IP addresses for
each Physical Server. The iDRAC port for each Physical Server provides concurrent access to iDRAC
and the OS. A Dell SD630-S server requires three management IP addresses including one for the
iDRAC port, which is not exposed to the OS, and two separate redundant connections for accessing
the OS.
For File Server solutions, each Connector requires two dual port PCI NICs.
The table here lists the quantity of IP addresses required for each additional Connector added to the
solution.

Switch requirements

This section defines the switch requirements for the management, application, and storage networks.

Management network

The Dell Storage Designed for Scality RING solution requires a switch for the storage network. The
selection depends on the Network Daughter Cards (NDCs) selected for the Dell SD7000-S and Dell
SD630-S servers, which include BT, SFP and SR Ethernet network interface options.

Application network

Dell recommends having two bonded network connections from each server to application network
through two separate redundant switches.
