2.6.3 Configuring the External Network: Option 3 - Non Gigabit Ethernet Interconnect
Clusters
Clusters
The administration network requires only one network interface, NIC1, on clusters that do not
use Gigabit Ethernet as the interconnect (that is, they use InfiniBand or the interconnect on the
administration network).
use Gigabit Ethernet as the interconnect (that is, they use InfiniBand or the interconnect on the
administration network).
On these non Gigabit Ethernet interconnect clusters, you have two configuration methods to
configure an external network connection, and the option you choose depends on whether the
collection of nodes requiring external connections includes half-height server blades.

•
If only full height server blades require external connections, you can use NIC3 for the
external network. This is similar to the way the external connection is configured in
external network. This is similar to the way the external connection is configured in
, and it saves the cost of an additional interconnect device in bay 2.
•
If half-height server blades require external connections, you cannot use NIC3 because half
height server blades do not have a third NIC. In this case, you must use NIC2 as the external
connection as shown in
height server blades do not have a third NIC. In this case, you must use NIC2 as the external
connection as shown in
. This configuration requires an Ethernet
interconnect module to be present in bay 2.
also shows the use of built-in NICs in the non-blade server nodes for the
external connection, but this varies by hardware model.
If the hardware configuration contains non-blade server nodes, see
for
information about which port to use for the external network.
