Page 77 highlights

Cable the base enclosure to the ToR switches Cable the node ports to the Top of Rack (ToR) switch ports for each Storage network. Our sample configuration demonstrates configuring the following node to switch ports. If you have used different ports than demonstrated below, see the Switch resources for Storage services worksheet, which you completed with your network administrator for the correct port mappings. NOTE: Ports 0 and 1 of the 4-port card are reserved for the cluster network with all PowerStore T model appliances. If deploying a PowerStore 500T model appliance ports 2 and 3 of the 4-port card are reserved for connectivity to the 24 Drive 2.5 Inch NVMe (ENS24) expansion enclosures. Table 35.
