ISIS | 2500 Network Zone Configurations
30
ISIS | 2500 Zone 1 Client Configuration (Direct Connect)
The ISIS | 2500 does not provide any client connections directly to the Engine or System Director. Client
connections are only available through a switch.
ISIS | 2500 Zone 2 Client Configuration (Indirect Connect)
Clients that are connected to a switch are referred to as Zone 2 clients. Zone 2 clients are not routed. For a list of
supported switches, see the
“Qualified and Approved ISIS Switches” on page 11.
A Zone 2 configuration consists of a group of clients connected to an Ethernet switch with a 10 Gb port connected
to the ISIS | 2500 Engine. The System Director also connects to the switch using a 1 Gb port or 10 Gb port. Each
client connects to the Zone 2 switch using either a 1 Gb or 10 Gb connection.
Avid ISIS | 2500 Zone 2 Network Configuration
ISIS | 2500 Zone 3 and Zone 4 Client Configuration
A Zone 3 (indirect connect) configuration consist of a group of clients connected to an Avid qualified layer-3
switch (routed), with known Quality of Service (QoS), with traffic routed to the ISIS (one hop).
A Zone 4 (indirect connect) configuration consists of a group of clients using an Ethernet switch with unknown
QoS, with traffic routed to the ISIS (measured by the number of hops).
The house switch should have uplinks to the Avid Production Network through an Ethernet switch that contains a
10 Gb port connected to the Engines. The ISIS | 2500 System Director also connects to the switch using a 1 Gb
port or 10 Gb port. The ISIS | 2500 can connect to the same APN switches as the primary ISIS | 7500 or ISIS |
5500, but must use a different subnet from other ISIS storage systems.
