AFAIK any standard equipment can be used (note: I am a customer). Leaving it to EMC to dig deeper now...

I don't know of anything more specific than what's in the compatibility document that Peter noted. I'm specifically referring to this statement, which I believe we've included because we don't have a process for formally verifying specific front-end switches.

ETHERNET COMPLIANT SWITCHES
Isilon nodes support industry-standard 1 GbE and 10 GbE switches. Ethernet switches should meet the following minimum requirements:
- Include non-blocking switch fabric
- Support a 1 MB buffer per switch port
- Support jumbo frames
-----
I do performance benchmarking for Isilon. I have personally used the Cisco 5596 with success, a Brocade MLX-16 with some success (I say "some" only because I didn't test with for very long), and am currently using an Arista 7508 with great success. This testing all uses 10GigE.

Not sure what you're referring to here. Do you mean supported client OSes?

Ah, thanks.
(No, I know of no such thing...)
