The public network (172.19.*) provides 10 Gbit/s connectivity between machines
and internet access. It is used for communication to and from the nodes, including
VNC, RDC, WSUS and domain services.
The private network (192.168.29.*) also provides 10 Gbit/s connectivity between
machines. NDI is configured on this network, which supports multicast. It is used
for communication between nodes by applications such as OpenSpace and C-play.
