The callouts in the figure enumerate the following:

1.The iLO2 Ethernet port is the connection to the Console Switch.

2.NIC1 is the connection to the Administration Switch (branch or root).

3.If a Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) interconnect is configured, this port (labeled NIC2) is used for the interconnect connection. Otherwise, it is used for an external connection.
