5.3 Start up and Configuration the Ethernet Switch Module

It's important to understand the Ethernet Switch Module architecture when configuring the
Ethernet Switch Module. The Ethernet Switch Module has two types of ports. One type is for
interfacing the Ethernet Switch Module with PRIMERGY BX Blade Server, and the other type
are regular Ethernet ports used for connecting PRIMERGY BX Blade Server to the network.
The Ethernet Switch Module module is connected to PRIMERGY BX Blade Server
(Management Board) MMB through 10 internal ports called the Internal Ports. The maximum
link speed through the Internal Ports is 1 Gigabit per port. The port configuration ID's are g1 to
g10. To connect the Ethernet Switch Module module to the network there are eight PHY based
ports called the External ports. The external six ports are 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet ports.
The two 10G modules are CX4 or XFP interface. The port configuration ID's are g11 to g18.
The default configuration of the internal and external ports are as follows:
