The following figure shows the topology that is used in this example.
The PowerStore X SPA and SPB ports 0 and 1 connect to Leaf2A and Leaf2B. ESXi nodes 1 and 2 connect to Leaf1A and Leaf1B. The fabric connects to the external switches using L2 uplinks. The external network provides the infrastructures services such as DNS and NTP.
The port connections to the leaf switches in Rack 2 are shown in the following table. Ports 1/1/31 and 1/1/32 are broken out to 10 GbE. See the Breakout Interfaces section for more information about changing the default port speed.
Storage - PowerStore X | Switch | Interface |
SPA: Port 0 | S5248F-Leaf2A | 1/1/31:1 |
SPA: Port 1 | S5248F-Leaf2B | 1/1/31:1 |
SPB: Port 0 | S5248F-Leaf2A | 1/1/32:1 |
SPB: Port 1 | S5248F-Leaf2B | 1/1/32:1 |
