In this NetApp tutorial, you'll learn about broadcast domains and failover groups which work together to ensure that if a physical port goes down, the client would still have access to the logical interface and IP address on the NetApp storage system.

Hi Neil, I just want to say thank you for putting these videos together. I am on a project replacing a FAS8040 with an AFF device (not sure yet which model). I don't trust the legacy configuration, so I am spiking on how this is actually supposed to be set up. Your videos are incredibly helpful in breaking down concepts I don't understand from the NetApp docs. Thanks again!

Thanks for the kind words. I'm happy to help!

Hi Neil, around 9m, you say to add interfaces that are part of an interface group to a bcast domain first then add the ifgrp to the bcast domain, but that isn't correct as interfaces that are part of an ifgrp cannot be in a bcast domain. You have to remove ifaces from their bcast domain prior to adding them to an ifgrp.

Question regarding ipspace and broadcast domain. - What is a purpose of creating object( ipspace ) which is able to contain only one object ( broadcast domain ) ? If ip space ( layer 3) coud be able to contain multiple broadcast domains ( layer 2) and allow to route between them and at the same time was able to sepatate it from diffirent ipspace which coud have identical configuration ( same subnet ) - that would be logic. Now its just unnecessary layer. You could name broadcast domains as IPspace and separate traffic between them - the same story. The point is that purpose of creating object is ability to group multiple objects . Here we have one object able to store only one object - pointless.
