Scenario 2:1 - Flex-10 - VLAN Tagging (802.1Q) with Multiple Shared Uplink Sets (SUS) and Mapped VLANs - Windows
2003/2008 116
Adding additional NICs to an existing server Profile
What has been shown and discussed to this point is standard Virtual Connect functionality. We will now
go into more of the specific Flex-10 features by providing additional NICs to the Windows server, without
adding additional server hardware.
The server must be powered off in order to add NICs to the profile, however; editing of the profile,
changing network connections, link speed etc., can be done with the server running.
Figure 2-21
Server Blade profile was initially configured with only TWO NICs. We have now added TWO
additional Flex-10 NICs and connected them to PROD-B-1 and PROD-B-2 respectively.
