C Create an additional Storage network This appendix contains the following information. Topics: • Create a new Storage network Create a new Storage network You can configure up to 32 storage networks, with a maximum of 8 networks per port on the node. You will require the following information to perform the steps to create a new Storage network. NOTE: The sample network resources below can be used on the two Dell EMC PowerSwitch Series S4148 Top-of-Rack (ToR) switches configured for the original NVMe/TCP network described in Add Storage Services. If you did not use the same Dell EMC PowerSwitch Series S4148 ToR switches described in this guide, then replace the sample resources with values matching your environment. Table 47.
