Cable Ethernet switch
As directed by the system diagram for your storage system, cable the switch or switches for your
system using the instructions in this section.
These instructions are for the HP ProCurve switch 2900 and 2910 series. You must use this switch
for iSCSI traffic.
For control and FTP/streaming traffic, it is allowed to use a different brand of switch, such as a
Cisco Catalyst switch, if required by your site. If you are using a non-HP switch, apply the information
in the following procedures accordingly. Refer to the documentation you received with the switch
as necessary.
Install the switch in its permanent location. When installing in a video equipment rack, use 10-32
screws. Do not use HP’s 12-24 screws, as they can cause thread damage.
Provide power to the switch.
