Cisco Nexus 5596UP and 5596T cabling worksheet
If you want to document the supported platforms, you must complete the blank cabling worksheet by using the completed sample cabling worksheet as a guide.
Sample cabling worksheet
Some platforms support more than one 10GbE cluster port connection per cluster interconnect switch. To support additional cluster connections, you can use ports 25 through 40, as well as ports 49 through 80 when expansion modules are installed.
The sample port definition on each pair of switches is as follows:

Blank cabling worksheet
You can use the blank cabling worksheet to document the platforms that are supported as nodes in a cluster. The Supported Cluster Connections section of the Hardware Universe defines the cluster ports used by the platform.
|
Switch ports 1 through 24 function as 10 GbE ports. Switch ports 41 through 48 are reserved for Inter-Switch Links (ISLs). |
