A‑Link and Private Network Requirements
A-Link and private networks have the following requirements:
- The networks use IPv6 link-local addressing.
- All A-Link and private networks on one PM of a ztC Edge system must be in the same L2 broadcast domain as its matching links on the other physical machine (PM), without any protocol filtering.
- Ethernet packets sent between two PMs of a system must not be obstructed or rate-limited. Ensure that they are not routed or switched by any L3 network infrastructure.
- The speed of A-Link networks should be equal to or greater than the speed of business or management networks.
- Network traffic for storage replication between PMs is sent over A-Link networks.
- Private networks have no network hosts connected other than the ztC Edge end-points.
