Rackmount Server Connections
The HP BL460 Gen10 Blade Server will have a base set of NICs that connect internally to the enclosure's IO bays 1 and 2. These connections are "hard-wired" and won't be documented here. Since no additional NICs are planned beyond the base pair of NICs, no further declarations of network connectivity on the blades needs mentioning. Blade specifications are linked here:
https://www.hpe.com/us/en/product-catalog/servers/proliant-servers/pip.specifications.hpe-proliant-bl460c-gen10-server-blade.1010025832.html.
The Enclosure's Onboard Administrator (OA) will be deployed as a redundant pair, with each connecting with 1GE copper connection to the respective ToR switches' SFP+ ports.
The HP 6127XLG switch (https://www.hpe.com/us/en/product-catalog/servers/server-interconnects/pip.hpe-6127xlg-blade-switch.8699023.html) will have 4x10GE fiber (or DAC) connections between it and ToR respective switches' SFP+ ports.

This section contains the point to point connections for the switches. The switches in the solution will follow the naming scheme of "Switch<series number>", i.e. Switch1, Switch2, etc; where Switch1 is the first switch in the solution, and switch2 is the second. These two form a redundant pair. The switch datasheet is linked here: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/switches/nexus-9000-series-switches/datasheet-c78-736651.html.
The first switch in the solution will serve to connect each server's first NIC in their respective NIC pairs to the network. The next switch in the solution will serve to connect each server's redundant (2nd) NIC in their respective NIC pairs to the network.
