Dell EMC ECS EX Series - Node Ports on Front-End Switches; Back-End Switch, Front-End Switch, and Idrac Ports on an EX300 Node; Node Ports on Back-End Switches

The numbered front-end switch ports used for connecting to the ports on the EX300 nodes are
shown in the following diagram. Port 1 on the Hare switch (FE2) connects to port 4 on Node 1.
Port 2 on the Hare switch (FE2) connects to port 4 on Node 2, and so on. Similarly, Port 1 on the
Rabbit switch (FE1) connects to port 3 on Node 1. Port 2 on the Rabbit switch (FE1) connects to
port 3 on Node 2, and so on.
