Ports on the Switch
The following table describes the Ethernet ports of the switch, including the port name and
function.
Note – The actual mapping of switch ports to server Network Interface Controllers (NICs) is
dependant on the operating system software, the type of server blade, and the enclosure type. For
more information, see the HP GbE2c Ethernet Blade Switch User Guide.
