5 OOB Management network Network topological designs are not complete without a layer for management traffic. The OOB management network is a separate network for management traffic only. Administrators use the OOB management network to configure, manage, and monitor devices such as servers and switches. Payload traffic that is initiated by network end users does not traverse the OOB management network. Switches used for management are 1GbE. Figure 7 demonstrates how the Dell EMC Networking S3048-ON switch may be used for this purpose. Management network example for a single rack Figure 7 shows an OOB management network for a single rack. More racks can be added to the same management network. A Dell EMC Networking S3048-ON may be used to manage up to 48 devices on the network, typically enough for a single rack of equipment. The switch may then be connected to other adjacent management switches, or upstream to a management core. 13 Dell EMC Networking OS10 Enterprise Edition Deployment Guide with Cisco ACI
