direct connection between two servers

[J. Augusto de Oliveira]

Hi,

I am new to PVE but trying to learn fast.

Would it be possible to directly connect the two servers with 10GbE, so each server had 1 (in the real world it would have 2) connections to the 'main' network, but 1 network card with an ethernet cable that connected directly to the second server, no switches or routers, just a direct connection.

I would like to use the 10Gb ports for cluster communication. They are currently using the 1Gn switch connections.

Thanks
