Cable Ethernet switch

As directed by the system diagram for your storage system, cable the switch or switches for your system using the instructions in this section.

These instructions are for the HP ProCurve switch 29xx series.

If a different brand of switch, such as a Cisco Catalyst switch, is required by your site, apply the information in the following procedures accordingly. Refer to the documentation you received with the switch as necessary.

Install the switch in its permanent location. When installing in a video equipment rack, use 10-32 screws. Do not use HP’s 12-24 screws, as they can cause thread damage.

Provide power to the switch.
