The Core network is a virtual network (created automatically during the VergeIO installation/Tenant creation) to handle all intra-node communication.
Every VergeIO Cloud has 1 Core Network (There is a Core network at the physical host level; additionally, each Tenant has a Core network.)
The DMZ network is a virtual network (created automatically during the VergeIO installation/Tenant creation) as a connection point for all networks. Every VergeIO Cloud has 1 DMZ Network (There is a DMZ network at the physical host level; additionally, each Tenant has a DMZ network.)
The Maintenance Network is an External network that can be created to handle IPMI access to Physical Nodes and optional PXE boot.
The Internal Network is a virtual network originated within VergeIO. Any number of Internal Networks can be created. Built-in VergeIO networking functionality allows for opening up access between Internal Networks and to External Networks as needed.
The External Network is a network originated outside of the VergeIO system; any pre-existing network that will be interfaced with VergeIO (e.g. company LAN, direct WAN connections, WiFi networks). In a VergeIO system there is typically at least 1 External Network and there can be multiple External networks. External Networks can be defined during or after VergeIO system installation.
Rules define behavior for incoming and outgoing traffic in a VergeIO network, providing the functionality traditionally provided by firewalls, routers, and switches.
A virtual wire is the equivalent of an uplink between two virtual switches (networks) used to provide Layer 2 connectivity.
