Using Same IP Subnet for Management and Storage

Hello All.

 

For production environments, is it safe to use a single/same IP Subnet for Management and Storage OR should we use different IP Subnets?

What is the recommendation/best practice?

 

For example, in a 3-node cluster assigning 10.4.8.51 to 10.4.8.53 to the Management adapters and assigning 10.4.8.61 to 10.4.8.66 for Storage/RDMA adapters?

 

Thank you.

    nope. don't do this. management do not need to be tagged but for storage no experiments, follow the guidance on the network requirements on learn and use Network ATC where possible, it will make things lots easier.
