Additional network configuration is likely to be necessary either before or after the connection to vCenter Server is made. For instance, configuration of a management VLAN, a VMkernel port for a secondary management address, additional VMkernel ports for vSAN, NFS storage, or third-party distributed virtual switches might also be required. As previously highlighted, in an interactive installation, these configurations are likely to be configured either manually or a through a post-deployment script. However, during an automated deployment, it is more likely that they are configured either through a post-installation script or through vSphere host profiles.
