and Port 16 of each switch. In any switch configuration, a minimum of two links
aggregation with spanning tree must be created and set. Therefore, this may not
necessarily be Port 15 and 16 on your switch.

You can use the CN1610 port assignment table as a guide to configure your cluster.

Ports 1-12 are configured as cluster ports. This does not indicate the number of
supported nodes for Cluster-Mode. To use any unconnected ports for other
administrative purposes, you must manually reconfigure them. For specific port
settings, see the latest reference configuration file (RCF) available from
http://www.ibm.com/storage/support/nseries. The sample port definition on
each pair of switches is as follows:
