Its my first time with blade server and when looking in the manual in the network section, it states onboard nic slot 1 and 2 is for bay 1. With it comes with either n, n+8, or n+12.<BR /><BR />Looking forward for help in this forum.<BR /><BR />Thank you Wed, 06 Mar 2013 14:34:51 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/bladesystem-general/blade-networking-components/m-p/5985769#M18892 Cimpetcee 2013-03-06T14:34:51Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/bladesystem-general/blade-networking-components/m-p/5985841#M18895 <P>This means a half height blade in slot 1 (n=1) connects to port 1 and 9 in interconnect bay 1.
