Features
• Gb ports: Dedicated network interface for the CMC web interface. The CMC has two
RJ-45 Ethernet ports:
– Gb1 (the uplink port)
– Gb2 (the stacking or cable consolidation port). The STK/Gb2 port can also be used
for CMC NIC failover.
NOTE: Ensure that the CMC setting is changed from default Stacking to
Redundant to implement NIC failover.
CAUTION: Connecting the STK/Gb2 port to the management network will
have unpredictable results if the CMC setting is not changed from default
Stacking to Redundant, to implement NIC failover. In the default Stacking
mode, cabling the Gb1 and STK/Gb2 ports to the same network
(broadcast domain) can cause a broadcast storm. A broadcast storm can
also occur if the CMC setting is changed to Redundant mode, but the
cabling is daisy chained between chassis in the Stacking mode. Ensure
that the cabling model matches the CMC setting for the intended usage.
