C7000 internet connection

MikeT2006 — Thu, 09 Jan 2025 11:05:07 GMT

Hello,

i have an hp c7000, with BL465C Gen8 blades, with Virtual Connect 455880-B21, with transceivers 453154-B21. i have currently setup a network but when i try to add a port, it gives me a red X mark. So my question is, do i need a certain type of switch that is capable of communicating with the transceiver or will any switch/router work and im experiencing another issue with my setup/hardware? im very new to this type of networking and purchased this system since i couldnt pass it up for what i paid for. This is for home use so i dont have knowledge on the business/enterprise type of setups. Thanks, Mike

Update, I was able to find a solution by removing the Flex 10 module and using a HP VC FlexFabric 10Gb/24-Port Module, there must be compatibility issue with using the copper SFP module. Thanks, Mike
