category, TCP/IP tab window. Table 16 (page 54) lists the names of these interfaces. These
interfaces can be bonded a number of ways. Note that not all the bond configurations which are
supported by HP StoreVirtual Storage are supported with 10 GbE NICs.
NOTE: For the HP StoreVirtual 4630, the CMC shows an additional two NICS available for the
management network. To use these two NICs (BladeBoard3 and BladeBoard4) in the server profile,
you must add ports and assign them to the desired management network using HP Virtual Connect
Manager under Enclosure Information in the Onboard Administrator.

IMPORTANT: Beginning in LeftHand OS Version 10.0, the Emulex 10 GbE card now supports
a 9 Gb port speed setting with the P4800 G2. The 9 Gb port speed setting may display as an
option for the 10 GbE card when used on other storage system models besides the P4800 G2.
However, the 9 Gb port speed setting should only be used with the P4800 G2.
