Be careful configuring the switch ports when deploying this configuration. Configuration
errors in this network topology can result in deployment problems that are difficult to
diagnose.
The following illustration shows the network configuration overview for this topology option. In the example,
individual switch ports are configured with the appropriate network segment as the native network.
Example switch commands
You can use the following example switch commands to configure switch ports used for the NetApp HCI nodes.
These commands are based on a Cisco configuration, but might require only minimal changes to apply to
Mellanox switches. See your switch documentation for the specific commands you need to implement this
configuration.
You can use the following example commands to configure the switch ports used for the management network.
Replace the interface name, description, and VLANs with the values for your configuration.
interface {interface name, such as EthernetX/Y or GigabitEthernetX/Y/Z}
description {desired description, such as NetApp-HCI-NodeX-PortA|B}
switchport access vlan 100
spanning-tree port type edge
You can use the following example commands to configure the switch ports used for the storage network.
Replace the interface name, description, and VLANs with the values for your configuration.
interface {interface name, such as EthernetX/Y or GigabitEthernetX/Y/Z}
description {desired description, such as NetApp-HCI-NodeX-PortC|D}
