An administrator is planning to deploy a Nutanix cluster to support a few high-performance VMs. This deployment will have the following considerations:
• Individual VMs will likely generate network throughputs in the range of 90-100Mbps
• Due to the configuration of the VMs, it is unlikely that a node will host more than one or two of them at a time
• Individual VMs will communicate with only a few (one or two) remote hosts at a time
• Multicast will not be used in the environment
• The hosts are connected via two 1GbE network connections
