Internal Chassis Networking
Figure 2-8 shows the internal chassis networking for the CX310 and compute nodes. Ports on compute nodes for connecting to the CX310 are provided by two mezzanine modules as follows:
- Mezz 1 connects to the converged switching plane of the CX310s in slots 2X and 3X.
- Mezz 2 connects to the converged switching plane of the CX310s in slots 1E and 4E.
For details, see the E9000 Blade Server Mezzanine Module-Switch Module Interface Mapping Tool.
The following describes the mapping between the CX310s and mezzanine modules. For example, the CX310s are installed in slots 2X and 3X and connect to Mezz 1.
Port Mapping Between a Switch Module and a Mezzanine Module
Mapping between the CX310s and ports on the MZ311
The MZ311 provides four 10GE optical ports (ports 1 to 4). Ports 1 and 3 map to the converged switching plane of the CX310 in slot 2X. Ports 2 and 4 map to the converged switching plane of the CX310 in slot 3X.
Mapping between the CX310s and ports on the MZ510
The MZ510 provides two 10GE ports (ports 1 and 2). Ports 1 and 2 map to the converged switching plane of the CX310s in slots 2X and 3X respectively.
Mapping between the CX310s and ports on the MZ512
The MZ512 provides four 10GE optical ports (ports 1 to 4). Ports 1 and 3 map to the converged switching plane of the CX310 in slot 2X. Ports 2 and 4 map to the converged switching plane of the CX310 in slot 3X.
