Network isolation is critical for security and performance:
* Option C: Storage (internal) and Public (external) networks must be on separate VLANs/virtual networks to prevent unauthorized access to internal traffic.
* Option D: The Storage Network should be isolated from the CVM network to avoid AOS cluster interference.
* Incorrect:
* A: CVMs manage AOS storage; Objects Storage Network should not share this segment.
* B: Combining networks violates security best practices.

"Place Objects Storage Network on a dedicated internal network, segregated from Public Networks and CVM traffic. Use distinct virtual networks for each."(Chapter: "Network Segmentation Best Practices")Nutanix NUSA Course:"Isolate Storage Network (backend) from Public Network (client-facing) and CVM network to ensure cluster stability and security."(Module: "Objects Network Design")
