Switch logic?

Question

network hardware

Blade Chassis HP c3000. Behind the Ethernet switch. Q: Are all ports on this switch connected to all internal ports? (that is, they combine all the blades, and all will be available through one port) Or is each port responsible for some blades? I ask because I saw that three links come out of the chassis switch and are plugged into one switch. I can not understand the logic of work. Usually a switch switch is not connected with a bunch of links (with the exception of link aggregation)

Answer 1

You have most likely seen an etherchanel connection. If it is a switch, then it has 16 internal ports and several external ones (which connect the basket to the enterprise network)
ps: I already answered a similar question How to configure a network for an HP BladeSystem c3000? Maybe you will find the answer for yourself.
