One thought on “Which two cabling configurations should be used for the heartbeat connectivity?

  1. B and C are correct:

    To use the cluster configuration, the two fabric interconnects must be directly connected together using Ethernet
    cables between the L1 (L1-to-L1) and L2 (L2-to-L2) high availability ports, with no other fabric interconnects
    in between. This allows the two fabric interconnects to continuously monitor the status of each other and
    quickly know when one has failed.
