If you are using an off-host proxy to backup VMs stored on an SMB File share (scale-out file server), then Veeam will use SMB Multichannel, and even SMB Direct if you have RDMA-capable NICs. Here's the relevant documentation page on how this works: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backu ... tml?ver=95

From the off-host proxy to backup repository, that is using Veeam-specific transport, not SMB.
