Step 2 - Installing and configuring the switches
Things to know - Switches and routers
Note:
Most of the switches and routers, as shipped from the vendor, require an update to either
their firmware or their settings to work correctly with the storage array.
The switches and routers in the following tables are certified for use with an E2712 storage array, an
E2724 storage array, and an E2760 storage array using SANtricity Storage Manager Version 11.20.
If required, make the appropriate configuration changes for
each switch or router that is connected to
the storage array.
See the switch’s documentation for information about how to install the switch or router and how to
use the configuration utilities that are supplied with the switch or router.
