Mezzanine Card usage of Compellent SC 5020
Dear All,
Can anyone please share the exact usage/ cause of using Mezzanine Card in Compellent boxes.
Or, more specifically: can it work as front-end ports?

Hello rahmanmozahidur,
When connecting to multiple front-end protocols, you can use a mezzanine card to connect to iSCSI hosts. The iSCSI ports on the mezzanine card connect to the iSCSI host servers through the Ethernet switches in the SAN. The mezzanine card is only used when the HBA card slot in the storage controller is already populated with an HBA.
Please let us know if you have any other questions.
