Each switch must be assigned a unique Ethernet IP address during configuration. Once

the default Ethernet IP address on the 4Gb SAN Switch has been changed, you may

install additional 4Gb SAN Switches in the enclosure.
See the appropriate HP BladeSystem Enclosure Setup and Installation Guide for help

identifying your specific enclosure setup, available connections and power requirements.

Electrical considerations

The 4Gb SAN Switch requires 35 watts, provided by the enclosure. No other power

requirement or provision exists.

Environmental considerations

Ensure proper cooling and ventilation by verifying the following:

The air vents on the enclosure are not blocked or restricted.

The ambient air temperature at the front of the enclosure does not exceed 35°C

(95°F) while the switch is operating.

IMPORTANT:

The dust covers that ship with your 4Gb SAN switch

must

be inserted into any ports

where SFPs are not installed, to help contain air flow in the BladeSystem chassis.
