Help with Blade environment - WS-CBS3020-HPQ

[smith606306]

  I have 2 Cisco WS-CBS3020-HPQ blade switches in the server farm and each one has a seperate trunk link to the core switch.

Which ports do i use to connect them internally across the backplane?

i think you need to review the design before connecting them using a backdoor link as this could lead to layer 2 loop or spanning tree if not configured correctly could lead to suboptimal layer 2 path

OK thanks.

Do you have a link to a design document on the best setup for them
