Notes:
a. If you connect the ESS directly to the host system, the option you select
must match the port connections on the ESS.
b. If you connect through a switch, the options do not need to match the port
connections because the ESS is point-to-point.
c. The appropriate host bus adapter on the server must also support
point-to-point connection on a direct connection.
d. If you use adapter cards from different manufacturers, they will not function
properly in a direct point-to-point connection. This is not true if you connect
through a switch because the ESS is point-to-point.
