Design C series connectivity for DMZ network

[Amr Hafez]

Hi

I have Cisco UCS B200 M4 and FI 6248 and Netapp 2552 directly connected to FI in FC switch mode and I did the zoning in FI and they working fine

we will buy a new C220 M4 to use in DMZ and I need to integrate C220 M4 with UCSM to create vHBA and zoning with Netapp 2552 directly connected to FI in FC switch mode as mentioned 

my design is to buy CNA and NIC for C220 M4, CNA to directly connect to both FI and configure the uplink as server port, then create SP with 2 vHBA for zoning with Netapp and the NIC to directly connect to DMZ switch and configure it from CIMC of C-series

Does this design work?

and if there are any suggestion for the design please explain it.

Hi Amr

Yes ! 2 comments

1) the supported CNA's can be found in

2) regarding DMZ, I would recommend a disjoint vlan setup, see eg.
