What kind of module do you have in A1 and/or A2 on the back? This is where the blade's NICs are connected to.
The CMC has it's own ports, which I assume you have plugged into your regular network.
If you have the passthrough modules for A1 and/or A2, each blade has it's own port on the back on the passthrough module, so if you have the blade in slot 1, but you plugged a cable into passthrough port 2, the blade isn't connected to your network.
If you have the switch option, have you pulled up the switch management webpage to see if it sees the blade's NIC come up (connect), and also verified that one of the external ports on the switch sees the linkup to your regular network switch?
