Internal networking
The blade server access the network through an interconnection module. The interconnection
module provides the internal interconnection with blade servers through the infix backplane, and
provides uplink interconnection interfaces for blade servers through the panel interfaces. The
chassis may contain up to 6 interconnection modules. Among them, the interconnection modules in
slots 1 and 4, 2 and 5, and 3 and 6 are interconnected through the internal ports of the chassis to
form three pairs. Each pair can be used as a switching plane. You may configure them as active or
standby based on service needs.
Internal wiring method of the blade server chassis is shown in
. Where:
•
The onboard NIC is connected to the active and standby OM modules.
•
Mezzanine module 1 is connected to interconnect modules in slot 1 and slot 4.
•
Mezzanine module 2 is connected to interconnect modules in slot 2 and slot 5.
•
Mezzanine module 3 is connected to interconnect modules in slot 3 and slot 6.
