For which interconnect type must a logical interconnect group be configured for only a single frame?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

In the HPE Synergy architecture, Logical Interconnect Groups (LIGs) define the connectivity patterns for the frames. The ability of an LIG to span multiple frames depends entirely on the interconnect technology being used:

Ethernet Virtual Connect (Options A & D): The HPE Virtual Connect SE 40 Gb F8 and 100 Gb F32 modules are designed for Multi-Frame Link Aggregation. Using a Master/Satellite architecture, these LIGs can span up to five Synergy frames, allowing a single logical management point for the entire fabric.

Fibre Channel Switches (Option B): The Brocade 32GB Fibre Channel Switch Module is a traditional 'managed switch' persona. Unlike Virtual Connect, which acts as a fabric extender/aggregator, the Brocade module operates as a standalone switch within the frame's backplane. In HPE OneView, an LIG containing traditional Fibre Channel switches is strictly limited to a single frame. You cannot 'stack' or span a Brocade switch LIG across multiple frames in the same way you do with Ethernet VC modules.

Virtual Connect FC (Option C): While Virtual Connect Fibre Channel modules also generally operate within a frame context for their uplinks, the question specifically targets the 'Switch Module' (Brocade) which, as a standard industry switch, does not participate in the proprietary Synergy multi-frame horizontal stacking architecture.

C is definitely the right choice. It’s clear in the specs.

I’m leaning towards B. The Brocade switch might need it too.

C makes sense. Logical interconnect groups are tricky.

I feel like A could be the answer too. But C seems more specific.

I think it's C. The FC module needs a single frame setup.

I think it's B, but I need to double-check my notes. I remember the Fibre Channel modules had unique requirements.

I want to say it's A, but I could be mixing it up with another module. The specifics of frame configurations are tricky.

I think the answer might be C, but I'm not completely sure. I remember something about Fibre Channel needing specific configurations.
