NOTE
Brocade Virtual ADX supports Layer 2 switching of broadcast and unknown unicast packets
so you must connect the three data ports to three distinct vSwitches to avoid network loops.
If you plan to connect the data ports to the same vSwitch, then you must use different
VLANs for each data port. You must take the same care when deploying multiple
instantiations of the Brocade Virtual ADX on the same ESX host.
The following is a typical vSphere screenshot for a deployed and powered on Brocade
Virtual ADX.
