Point to Point Network Connection
The simplest network connection is the point-to-point connection shown in Figure 4-3.
This method allows you to connect two Profile systems together. The Fibre Channel
connection can be made using a Fibre Channel cable. The Ethernet connection can be
made using an Ethernet hub or an Ethernet crossover cable.
NOTE: The Ethernet crossover cable required for point to point Ethernet
connection is not shipped with the Profile system. Also, for point to point
connection, both Profiles must be powered on at the same time.
