Chapter 2 Installing the Level 2 Storage System
Setting up the Level 2 GigE switch
These procedures are for the HP ProCurve switch.
For iSCSI traffic, you must use the HP ProCurve switch. Both the 3400cl series and
2900 series switches are qualified for iSCSI traffic, and both types are fully
compatible and can coexist on the network.
For control and FTP/streaming traffic, it is allowed to use a different brand of switch,
such as a Cisco Catalyst switch, if required by your site. If you are using a non-HP
switch, apply the information in the following procedures accordingly. Refer to the
documentation you received with the switch as necessary.
Also refer to “Design considerations for Ethernet switches” on page 388 .
• Use CAT5e or CAT6 cables. The maximum cable length is 50 meters for CAT5e
and 100 meters for CAT6.
• Assign an IP address and logon to the switch. Refer to “Configuring the GigE
switch via serial connection” on page 29 .
• Set up VLANs on the switch. Refer to “Configuring the GigE switch via the Web
interface” on page 32 .
• Install the switch in its permanent location.
• Provide power to the switch.
• Connect cables as follows:
3400cl series switch
2900 series switch
