You must connect the two controllers to each other, connect the management ports on each controller, and connect the 10/25-GbE ports on the E5700SG controller to the Grid Network and optional Client Network for StorageGRID.
The figure shows the two controllers in the SG5760, with the E2800 controller on the top and the E5700SG controller on the bottom. In the SG5712, the E2800 controller is to the left of the E5700SG controller when viewed from the back.
Port | Type of port | Function | |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Two interconnect ports on each controller | 16Gb/s FC optical SFP+ |
Connect the two controllers to each other. |
2 | Management port 1 on the E2800 controller | 1-GbE (RJ-45) | Connects to the network where you access SANtricity System Manager. You can use the Admin Network for StorageGRID or an independent management network. |
Management port 2 on the E2800 controller | 1-GbE (RJ-45) | Reserved for technical support. | |
3 | Management port 1 on the E5700SG controller | 1-GbE (RJ-45) | Connects the E5700SG controller to the Admin Network for StorageGRID. |
Management port 2 on the E5700SG controller | 1-GbE (RJ-45) |
|
|
4 | 10/25-GbE ports 1-4 on the E5700SG controller | 10-GbE or 25-GbE Note: The SFP+ transceivers included with the appliance support 10-GbE link speeds. If you want to use 25-GbE link speeds for the four network ports, you must provide SFP28 transceivers.
