You are preparing to add a 2-node AFF A250 system to an existing 4-node AFF A800 cluster with Cisco Nexus 3232C switches. The cluster switches are currently running the Cluster-HA RCF.
In this scenario, which two steps are required to install the AFF A250 system? (Choose two.)
To add a 2-node AFF A250 system to an existing 4-node AFF A800 cluster that uses Cisco Nexus 3232C switches running the Cluster-HA RCF, you need to connect the new nodes to the next available ports on the switch. Additionally, you must apply the Cluster-HA-Breakout RCF to configure the ports correctly for mixed port speeds and proper traffic management.

The following reference configuration categories are available: Cluster-HA All ports configured for 40/100GbE. Supports shared cluster/HA traffic on ports - required for AFF A320, AFF A250, FAS500f. All ports can be used as dedicated cluster ports, as well. Cluster-HA-Breakout Ports configured for 4x10GbE breakout, 4x25GbE breakout (RCF 1.6+ on 100GbE switches) and 40/100GbE. Supports shared cluster/HA traffic on ports for nodes that use shared cluster/HA ports: AFF A320, AFF A250, FAS500f. All ports can be used as dedicated cluster ports, as well.
AFF A250 have 25GbE port, and Nexus 3232C support native 100 Gigabit Ethernet and 4 x 25 Gigabit Ethernet modes
