NonStop NS2200 Series Planning Guide

• Up to eight SAS disk enclosures can be connected to the HBA Fibre Channel interfaces on a
Storage CLIM that connects to the VIO enclosure in the NonStop NS2200 system.
• Two Ethernet connections, one in each VIO enclosure module, that connect to the maintenance
entity (ME) are necessary to enable the OSM Service Connection.
Ethernet to Networks
Depending on your configuration, Gigabit Ethernet connectivity is provided by the Ethernet interfaces
in one of these CLIMs or the Ethernet ports on the VIO enclosure:
• “IP CLIM Ethernet Interfaces” (page 100)
• “Telco CLIM Ethernet Interfaces” (page 101)
• “VIO Enclosure Ethernet Ports” (page 102)
The Telco CLIM, IP CLIM, or the Ethernet ports on a VIO enclosure provide Ethernet connectivity
between NonStop NS2200 commercial systems and Ethernet LANs. The Ethernet port is an end
node on the ServerNet and uses either fiber-optic or copper cable for connectivity to user application
LANs, as well as for the dedicated service LAN.
These are the front views of each CLIM model. For an illustration of the back views, refer to each
supported CLIM Ethernet Interface.
