iSCSI Networking

Hi I'm looking to created clustered files servers using Windows Server Failover Clustering - VMs will be in-guest, i'm using AHV. My understanding that presenting the Nutanix storage via iSCSI to WSFC servers is supported however i'm confused about how to setup the networking and the Nutanix ABS documentation doesn't make this clear. I'm used to creating a separate storage network / VLAN for all storage traffic however the iSCSI target IP address is recommended to be on the same network as the CVMs / all of the Nutanix infrastructure. So the question is do i create a separate network for storage and have it route to the iSCSI target IP address, or have the iSCSI initiators on the same network as the iSCSI target / data services IP? It wouldn't seem logical to mix the CVM traffic with storage traffic, however also not great to have to route storage traffic. Thanks Adam
