Switch Requirements
At a minimum, you can connect all the network ports in an EqualLogic FS7500 to the same physical switch.
However, this configuration is appropriate only for demonstration or testing purposes because the network switch
is a single point of failure. Dell recommends that you use a highly-available network switch configuration for the
client, SAN, and internal network connections.
Ideally, you want a network switch configuration in which a switch failure does not disrupt the availability of the
NAS service. This means that no single switch should have all the client, SAN, or internal network connections.
See
Network Connection Requirements and Recommendations on page 38
Required Tools
You might need tools to install the controllers and BPS in a rack. These tools are not provided in the shipping
box.
