NonStop NS14000 Planning Guide (H06.10+)
For a fault-tolerant dedicated service LAN, two Ethernet ports are required; one port located in
VIO enclosure module 2 for X ServerNet fabric connectivity, and one port located in VIO enclosure
module 3 for Y ServerNet fabric connectivity. When the Ethernet port provides connection to
the dedicated service LAN, use the slower 10/100 Mbps PIF A rather than one of the high-speed
1000 Mbps Ethernet ports of PIF C or D.
