HPE BL460c gen9 servers cannot connect to the network
Hello everybody.
My problem is that my servers, bl460c gen9 cannot connect to the network in any way. They are installed with Windows Server 2019 and I cannot make them see each other by placing them with a static IP or by DHCP, I have the integrated network card in the server and an additional HP 536FLB FlexFabric 10Gb in each of my servers. I also have six switches (4 HP VC FlexFabric 10Gb and 2 Cisco Catalyst Blade Switches 3120X.
I have tried all the possible combinations in the location of the switches, servers and network boards and I can never connect them. I have also updated all the firmware until April 2020. Is it possible that the network cards are burned? Or the main panel of the HPE C7000? Thank you.

Re: HPE BL460c gen9 servers cannot connect to the network
Below is the port mapping for BL460c gen9 server. Where server Onboard NIC hardwired connected to Interconnect module in Bay 1 and 2.
Whereas Mez 1 hardwired connected to Interconnect module in Bay 3 and 4.
In your scenario may I know how you have configured your network.
Or
Please refer HP Virtual Connect FlexFabric Cookbook and let us know in which scenario you have confifured your network.

Re: HPE BL460c gen9 servers cannot connect to the network
HI AmRa (HPE Pro), thanks for your help.
This is the location of the switch on the chassis.
From my computer I cannot find the MAC addresses of my servers on the network.I am waiting for you to give me more help.
Thank you.

Re: HPE BL460c gen9 servers cannot connect to the network
Please refer HPE Virtual Connect for c-Class BladeSystem Setup and Installation Guide Version 4.62 (page number 17 to 23) to review the HPE BladeSystem c7000 Enclosure supported configurations
https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/docDisplay?docLocale=en_US&docId=emr_na-a00042284en_us
- To set up and configure VC, an odd-numbered interconnect bay must be populated with a VC-Enet module or FlexFabric module.
- The lowest odd-numbered interconnect bay populated with a VC-Enet module or FlexFabric module becomes the primary VC module.
- When the following modules are installed in an interconnect bay, only an identical module can reside in the horizontally adjacent bay
- Do not install Virtual Connect and non-Virtual Connect modules in interconnect bays connected to the same server blade mezzanine card.
In addition to this, have you checked by disabling windows firewall.
