Installation
Installation and initialization of the switch platform are straightforward processes, requiring
attention to the normal mechanical, power, and thermal precautions for rack-mounted equipment.
The managed switch platform requires initial configuration to operate as an InfiniBand switch.
All internally managed switches come with an internal PPC based management board. This
board allows for internally managing the switch through a host PC or remotely through the Ether-
net.
