Depoying PowerScale F600 on 3rd party switch
Hi
We have some F600 - 100Gb back-end nodes but our Datacenter only certifies for Arista and Cisco Switches. So can you recommend some switch series which compatible with PowerScale F600 nodes?
Any risk if we deploy PowerScale on 3rd party switches?

Hello Thanh.TrungPham,
Here are a couple of links to a couple of guides that list out the supported switches. https://dell.to/3xXrqvl

Hello Thanh.TrungPham,
Those are the recommended switches to use. if you use a different manufacture then you will need to make sure that the specs match one of the supported switches to ensure that they will work.

Hi SAM,
Do you mean any switch will work with PowerScale if it matches the specs? Any feature required?

Hello Thanh.TrungPham,
That is correct that if the switch matches the specs of the recommend switches then they should work. However since we may not have tested a powerscale system with the switch we can’t say for 100% that it will work.
