Connecting to the network
To connect the HP BladeSystem to a network, each enclosure must be configured with network interconnect
devices to manage signals between the server blades and the external network.
Two types of interconnect modules are available for HP BladeSystem c-Class enclosures: Pass-Thru modules
and switch modules. For more information about interconnect module options, see the HP website
( http://www.hp.com/go/bladesystem/interconnects ).
IMPORTANT: To connect to a network with a Pass-Thru module, always connect the Pass-Thru
module to a network device that supports Gigabit or 10 Gb speed, depending on the
corresponding Pass-Thru model.
Installing server blade options
Before installing and initializing the server blade, install any server blade options, such as an additional
processor, hard drive, or mezzanine card.
