VMware Virtual SAN Network Design Guide v2.0 is just released

VMware has just released the document that covers network aspects of Virtual SAN design. 

Actually, the guide has been re-released as there was v1.0 before (hence the new one goes under v2.0), but as far as I am aware it was removed from the VMware web site due to some inaccuracies in it. So for a while people lacked validated design information on one of the key aspect of VSAN setup. I remember there were quite a few discussions on how to provide network redundancy and load-balancing for VSAN traffic and nobody could get a formal answer.

The guide is very comprehensive and even provides mutlicast configuration examples on Cisco and Brocade switches.
