Requirements - HP Integrity BL890c - i2 Server Manual

Requirements

In order to implement this scenario, an HP BladeSystem c7000 enclosure with one of more Blade G6
servers with 10Gb NICs and TWO Virtual Connect Flex-10 Ethernet modules, installed in Bays 1& 2 are
required. In addition, we will require ONE or TWO external Network switches. As Virtual Connect does
not appear to the network as a switch and is transparent to the network, any standard managed switch
will work with Virtual Connect.
Figure 2-46 Physical View; Shows one 10Gb Ethernet uplink from Ports 1 on Module 1 to Port 1 on the first
network switch and one 10Gb uplink from Port 1 on Module 2 to Port 1 on the second network switch.
