After comparing the components and their functionality, it is obvious why many customers treat a c-

Class enclosure with Virtual Connect the same way they would a single VMware ESX server. In

other words, VC allows an entire enclosure to look to the network just like a big VMware ESX

server. From a network redundancy and load balancing perspective, from a security perspective,

from a port monitoring perspective, etc.; VC simplifies the network connectivity for an entire

enclosure and makes it behave on the network like a single VMware ESX server.

Just to reiterate the commonality between the two products from a networking technology

perspective, below is a table of similarities.
