Topic #: 4
An IT team wants to quickly upgrade the network bandwidth of their PowerEdge servers while also adding extra management ports like VGA and serial connectors. Which strategy offers a combination of network upgradeability and enhanced management ports using onboard card options?
Suggested Answer: A Vote an answer
Installing an Open Compute Project (OCP) card upgrades network bandwidth without using PCIe slots, while a Rear Input Output (RIO) card adds management ports like VGA and serial. This combination provides flexibility and conserves expansion options. Replacing LOM limits options; high-end RIO may not cover network upgrades; upgrading LOM with PCIe NIC consumes slots. This strategy enhances connectivity in PowerEdge servers. Exact extract: "Compare the on-board network on a PowerEdge Server... Describe the cables and connections." Reference: Dell PowerEdge Foundations v2 Exam Description (D-PE-FN-01), Topic: Server Networking and Connectivity (6%).
