- Cluster Ports
Description
- Platforms that recommend sharing 40GbE or 100GbE network ports for both Cluster and HA connections can support 10G or 25G cluster connections to legacy cluster switches.
- Customers should update to 40GbE or 100GbE cluster speeds when legacy 10/25GbE cluster switches are no longer required.
- HA connections are external on these platforms and still exist on 40/100GbE network ports, even when using 10/25GbE cluster connections.
- Use this procedure to convert existing 10G or 25G cluster ports to 40G or 100G cluster ports in either switchless or switched ONTAP clusters.
- Cluster ports will be updated to use the same 40/100GbE ports that are currently being used for dedicated HA traffic.
