Important

 The customer must validate with their HPE or Dell hardware supplier that the server comes with an Ethernet GiB card for the Ethernet network connection via LAN. In some cases the server comes with fiber optic network cards and its physical connection is different from the Ethernet switches commonly used in the local network. In the case of Novohit, an Ethernet GiB card is required for the Ethernet network connection via LAN.
