Eth0 See Ethernet port 0.
Eth1 See Ethernet port 1.
Ethernet port 0 (Eth0) In Dell Compellent Storage Center, Eth0 is an Ethernet interface dedicated to management.
Ethernet port 1 (Eth1) In Dell Compellent Storage Center, Eth1 is an Ethernet interface dedicated to inter-process
communication between controllers, for clustering or remote replication.
external network In the context of the Dell AIM environment, a network that is not part of the Dell AIM
environment but is physically and logically connected to it.
external switch In the context of the Dell Aim environment, a switch that is not part of the Dell AIM
environment, but is physically and logically connected to it.
Fabric A combination of interconnected switches that act as a unified routing infrastructure. It
allows multiple connections among devices on a SAN and lets new devices enter
unobtrusively. A FC (or iSCSI) topology with at least one switch present on the network.
