4 10/25-GbE ports 1-4
on the E5700SG
controller
Steps
1. Connect the E2800 controller to the E5700SG controller, using two optical cables and four of the
eight SFP+ transceivers.
Connect this port...
Interconnect port 1 on the E2800 controller
Interconnect port 2 on the E2800 controller
2. Connect management port 1 (P1) on the E2800 controller (the RJ-45 port on the left) to the
management network for SANtricity System Manager, using an Ethernet cable.
Do not use management port 2 (P2) on the E2800 controller (the RJ-45 port on the right). This
port is reserved for technical support.
3. If you plan to use the Admin Network for StorageGRID, connect management port 1 on the
E5700SG controller (the RJ-45 port on the left) to the Admin Network, using an Ethernet cable.
If you plan to use active-backup network bond mode for the Admin Network, connect
management port 2 on the E5700SG controller (the RJ-45 port on the right) to the Admin
Network, using an Ethernet cable.
4. Connect the 10/25-GbE ports on the E5700SG controller to the appropriate network switches,
using optical cables and SFP+ or SFP28 transceivers.
All ports must use the same link speed. Install SFP+ transceivers if you plan to use 10-
Note:
GbE link speeds. Install SFP28 transceivers if you plan to use 25-GbE link speeds.
• If you plan to use Fixed port bond mode (default), connect the ports to the StorageGRID Grid
and Client Networks, as shown in the table.

Port 1
Port 2
Port 3
Port 4
• If you plan to use the Aggregate port bond mode, connect one or more of the network ports to
one or more switches. You should connect at least two of the four ports to avoid having a
single point of failure. If you use more than one switch for a single LACP bond, the switches
must support MLAG or equivalent.
Type of port
10-GbE or 25-GbE
Note: The SFP+
transceivers
included with the
appliance support
10-GbE link speeds.
If you want to use
25-GbE link speeds
for the four network
ports, you must
provide SFP28
transceivers.
