Connect the FS8600 appliances to the SAN/internal
network and client network.
Steps
- Identify the ports on a 10GbE iSCSI FS8600
appliance.
Figure 1. 10GbE iSCSI
FS8600 Appliance Ports
- Client network ports
- Internal/iSCSI ports
- Connect each appliance to the SAN/internal
network.
- Use LC optical fiber or twinax cables to connect all
controller internal/iSCSI ports to the SAN/internal network Ethernet
switches.
- For all controllers, eth30 (upper right port), must
be connected to the same subnet.
- For all controllers, eth31 (lower right port), must
be connected to the same subnet.
- Make sure each controller is connected to each switch.
- Connect each appliance to the client network.
- For each controller, use LC optical fiber or twinax
cables to connect both client ports to client network Ethernet switches.
- Make sure each controller is connected to each switch.
- Use the cable labels shipped with the appliance
to label each cable.
