VCE Vblock™ Systems Series 700 Architecture Overview

Network layer hardware

Network overview

The Cisco Nexus 5000 series switches in the network layer provide 10 GbE IP connectivity between the

components within the Vblock system and to the outside world. In a unified storage configuration, the switches

also connect the fabric interconnects in the compute layer to the X-Blades in the storage layer. The switches

also provide connectivity to the Advanced Management Pod (AMP) through redundant connections to the

Cisco Catalyst 3560X Ethernet switch or switches in the AMP. Refer to

Management hardware components

for information about the AMP. Ports are reserved or identified for special Vblock system services such as

backup connectivity.

The Cisco MDS 9000 series switches in the aggregation layer provide Fibre Channel links between the Cisco

fabric interconnects and the engines. In a unified storage configuration, this connection also supports SAN

booting of the blades in the compute layer. Ports are also reserved for special Vblock system services such as

SAN backup connectivity and aggregation uplinks.
