Executive summary Dell EMC VxFlex is an industry leading software-defined storage (SDS) solution that enables customers to extend their existing virtual infrastructure into a high performing virtual SAN. VxFlex creates a virtual server SAN using industry-standard servers with direct attached storage (DAS). You can deploy VxFlex using as few as three hosts, and up to 1024 hosts. Each host can use storage media such as flash-based SSDs, NVMe SSDs, traditional spinning disks, or a mix. The Dell EMC Networking S5248F-ON is the latest in the S-series of switches that provide the bandwidth and low latency support for a scalable storage architecture. This document provides two examples that detail the deployment of the Dell EMC VxFlex solution using Dell EMC Networking 25GbE switches. This document: • Assists administrators in selecting the best hardware and topology for their Dell EMC VxFlex network • Delivers detailed instructions and working examples for the deployment and configuration of Dell EMC Networking S-series switches using OS10 Enterprise Edition (OS10EE) • Delivers instructions and working examples for the deployment and configuration of a sample Dell EMC VxFlex virtual SAN • Shows conceptual, physical, and logical diagram examples for various networking topologies 5 VxFlex Network Deployment Guide using Dell EMC Networking 25GbE switches and OS10EE
