Platform Framework Cabinet - In-Cabinet Server Management Network Topology for Servers and Switches
Platform Framework Cabinet - In-Cabinet Server Management Network Topology for 680 Platform
In a Teradata system, each Teradata cabinet contains server management components, which monitor and manage all chassis connected to the server management Ethernet network.
In a PFC cabinet:
- The server management network uses two 24-port Ethernet switches.
- One switch is for primary server management network connections.
- One switch is for secondary server management connections.
- Each managed chassis connects to both the primary and secondary Ethernet switches, or only the primary Ethernet switch, depending on the chassis.
- Unmanaged chassis, such as KVMs and T610 SWSs, are not connected to either the primary or secondary Ethernet switch.
- Each primary and secondary Ethernet switch in the cabinet connects to the server management network of the Teradata system.
For port-to-port cabling, see the appropriate Hardware Installation Guide.
