### Networking requirements

For networking, MicroCloud requires two dedicated network interfaces: one for intra-cluster communication and one for external connectivity.
To allow for external connectivity, MicroCloud requires an uplink network that supports broadcast and multicast.
See {ref}`explanation-networking` for more information.
For networking, MicroCloud requires at least two dedicated network interfaces: one for intra-cluster communication and one for external connectivity. If you want to segregate the Ceph networks and the OVN underlay network, you might need more dedicated interfaces.

To allow for external connectivity, MicroCloud requires an uplink network that supports broadcast and multicast. See {ref}`explanation-networking` for more information.

The IP addresses of the machines must not change after installation, so DHCP is not supported.
