For a NetApp BlueXP Connector deployed inRestricted Mode, the following two network requirements must be met:

Outbound connectivity to the BlueXP SaaS layer (A): Even in Restricted Mode, the BlueXP Connector needs outbound internet access to communicate with the BlueXP SaaS layer for updates, telemetry, and licensing information.

Connectivity to resources in your target networks (C): The BlueXP Connector must have network access to the resources (e.g., NetApp Cloud Volumes ONTAP instances or other managed systems) that it is supposed to manage or monitor.

Inbound connectivity (B)from the BlueXP SaaS layer is not required in Restricted Mode, as the mode is designed to minimize external access.User access (D)to the BlueXP SaaS layer is a user interface consideration but not a network requirement for the connector itself.

In a Multi-AZ (Availability Zone) setup for NetApp Cloud Volumes ONTAP in AWS, ensuring nondisruptive failover between nodes is critical for high availability. "Floating IPs" are required for seamless failover between nodes in such a configuration.

Floating IPs allow the primary node to automatically transfer its IP address to the secondary node during a failover event, ensuring that clients can continue to access the service without needing to reconfigure anything. This mechanism enables clients to access the same IP regardless of which node in the cluster is actively serving requests, thus maintaining nondisruptive operations.

Elastic Network Interfaces (ENIs) facilitate networking in AWS but do not inherently handle IP floating between nodes for failover. Security groups and Intercluster UFs manage security and inter-node communication, respectively, but do not address the failover requirements. Floating IPs are explicitly designed to enable failover in high-availability cloud storage environments like NetApp Cloud Volumes ONTAP.

Thus, "floating IPs" are the required network construct that allows for nondisruptive failover between nodes in a multi-AZ setup, ensuring continuous service availability even in the event of an outage in one availability zone.

NetApp StorageGRID'sInformation Lifecycle Management (ILM)policies offer the key benefit ofautomated data optimization. ILM policies enable the system to automatically manage data placement and retention across different storage tiers and locations based on factors such as data age, usage patterns, and performance requirements. This ensures that frequently accessed data is placed on high-performance storage, while older or less critical data can be moved to lower-cost storage, optimizing resource use and reducing costs.

While ILM policies can contribute toimproved data security (A)andsimplified data access controls (D), their primary focus is on optimizing data storage over its lifecycle.Real-time data analytics capabilities (C)are not a core feature of ILM policies.
