3.3 IBM BladeCenter architecture
In our BladeCenter architecture, an access layer is made up of two IBM Virtual Fabric 10Gb
Switch Modules in a BladeCenter chassis. The switches are configured as a stack and the
servers are blade servers. The aggregation layer of BladeCenter design is used with
Top-of-Rack design.
