Configuring the CloudSystem network infrastructure
Several networks provide the communication platform for HP CloudSystem and the suite of integrated
tools. The configuration of the networks is flexible. This section explains the major components of
the networking infrastructure and provides an example of a supported configuration. This is only
a guide. Modify the procedures below to fit your network configuration needs. For example, the
bridge names can vary according to your environment.

IMPORTANT: All of the networks described above must be distinct networks, with the exception
of the External Network. You can use the same network for the External Network and the Data
Center Management Network.
For a detailed explanation of the networks, see Overview of network topology (page 16).
The figure below shows a visual representation of the recommended configuration for networks.
