3360 Appliance network interface card port assignments
The following section describes the on-board 10/1 Gbps network interface card (NIC) port assignments and the PCIe-based 10/25Gb NIC port assignments for the 3360 Appliance.
Table: Appliance compute node network interface port information
Port | Function |
|---|---|
eth0/NIC1 (copper/RJ45 connector) | A 10/1 Gbps port that is used for management functions of the appliance. You can connect NIC1 (eth0) to an administrative network that does not provide any backup data transfer. |
eth1/NIC2 (copper/RJ45 connector) | A 10/1 Gbps port that can be configured as an administrative network port that does not provide any backup data transfer. |
(eth2/NIC3) (copper/RJ45 connector) | A 10/1 Gbps private network port that is used for connections between the two appliance compute nodes |
(eth3//NIC4) (copper/RJ45 connector) | A 10/1 Gbps private network port that is used for connections between the two appliance compute nodes. |
IPMI port (copper/RJ45 connector) | A 1-GbE port that is used for appliance remote management purposes. |
(eth4) * | A 10/25GbE port that is used for general network uses. |
(eth5) * | A 10/25GbE port that is used for general network uses. |
(eth6)* | A 10/25GbE port that is used for general network uses. |
(eth7) * | A 10/25GbE port that is used for general network uses. |
* Virtual IP addresses can be assigned to the eth4 and eth6 ports of the appliance compute node during the initial configuration. IP addresses can be configured for ports eth5 and eth7 from the Access command-line interface after the initial configuration is complete. If you want to assign IP addresses to eth4 and eth6, ensure that eth4 and eth6 are plugged into the public network switch when you perform the initial configuration; else eth4 and eth6 can remain disconnected. | |
