When deploying the 6296 FI is there a best practice regarding the configuration/distribution of Ethernet and FC ports?
Example, we currently are deploying 6 chassis each with 4 Server Uplink ports per I/O module (total 24 ports per FI) and we are leaving some room for expansion in the future.
My question, would it make sense to dedicate all the fixed-ports for Uplink Server ports? Given the fact that the 6296 has 3 expansion modules that can be either Ethernet or FC, should we spread the connections across these cards or does it really matter?
Another example would be an 8-port vPC connection, should these 8 connections be distributed across different expansion modules? Or simply plugged into one???
Thanks
