Configure VLAN Tagging
To enable VLAN tagging, first be sure a subnet has been created with a valid VLAN ID. (Subnets without a VLAN ID can only accept untagged traffic.) Then, assign network interfaces on an array to this subnet, and specify the interfaces as tagged. Use the draft configuration profile to ensure the assignment is applied consistently to all NICs using the VLAN tag. For more information on creating a draft configuration profile, refer to the Command Line Reference.
Note Do not use the same network for both back-end and front-end traffic. Heavy usage on one side will cause latency or congestion issues on the other side, and there will be a cascading impact to the overall environment.
