Hi DELL SAM L,

I have a DR4100 with 4 NIC ports, 2x 1Gb and 2x10Gb i would like to know how to connect those ports to my system?

1. Should i connect only the 2x1Gb port to my 1Gb swith?

2. Should i connect all the 4 ports even if my switch has only 1Gb port?

In which way am i supposed to link my DR4100 with my existing system.

Thank you in advance!
