2.14 Uplink sets
An uplink set assigns data center networks to uplink ports of interconnects. The uplinks must be
from physical interconnects that are members of the logical interconnect to which the uplink set
belongs. An uplink set is part of a logical interconnect. For each logical interconnect:
• An uplink set cannot include a network set.
• A network can be a member of one uplink set.
• An uplink set can contain one Fibre Channel network.
• An uplink set can contain multiple Ethernet networks.
• You cannot assign two instances of the same network to the same physical port.
Relationship to other resources
An uplink set is part of a logical interconnect or a logical interconnect group.
The uplink sets defined by a logical interconnect group specify the configuration for uplink sets
used by logical interconnects that are members of the group. If the uplink sets of a logical
interconnect do not match the uplink sets of the logical interconnect group, the appliance notifies
you that the logical interconnect is not consistent with its group.

2.15 Networks
A network represents a Fibre Channel or Ethernet network in the data center.
Relationship to other resources
A network resource is associated with the following resources in the resource summary
diagram (page 32):
• Zero or more connections
• Zero or one uplink set per logical interconnect
• For Ethernet networks, zero or more network sets

2.16 Network sets
A network set represents a group of Ethernet networks identified by a single name. Network sets
are used to simplify server profile configuration. When a connection in a server profile specifies
a network set, it can access any of the member networks. Additionally, if networks are added to
