In vSAN 6.6 and later releases, multicast is not required on the physical switches that support the vSAN cluster. You can design a simple unicast network for vSAN. Earlier releases of vSAN rely on multicast to enable heartbeat and to exchange metadata between hosts in the cluster. If some hosts in your vSAN cluster are running earlier versions of software, a multicast network is still required.
