Hi Stephan, Thank you for your explanation. but for the availability, I think there is a 8 or 10 G traffic limitation when we consider the VE. also do you experience any kind of service distribution, because I have some concerns about the Hypervisor and the HA issues.

 

Thank you again.

    Hi Ammar, yes. VE is limited in throughput. By now I did not notice any stability issues with the hypervisor (VMware ESX in my case). Thanks, Stephan
