Unpacking, Inspecting, and Installing the Ethernet Hub
(Optional)
The HAFM appliance and one or more directors connect through an Ethernet hub
installed on a 10/100 Mbps LAN segment. One hub port is required to connect the
HAFM appliance, and one hub port is required to connect each director. A
combination of up to 48 HP directors or switches can be configured and managed
by a single HAFM appliance, therefore multiple hubs may be required to provide
sufficient port connections. These hubs must be connected in accordance with the
hub manufacturer's specifications. HP recommends using a star or hub-and-spoke
topology when connecting multiple hubs. The HAFM appliance must be
connected to the center hub, and there should never be more than two hubs
between the HAFM appliance and any director. Refer to the hub manufacturer's
documentation for more detailed information.
For instructions to unpack and inspect one or more Ethernet hubs, and install the
hubs in a desktop or rack-mount configuration, refer to the appropriate Ethernet
hub documentation.
