Description
Features and Benefits
HPE 782414-001 is a network adapter card designed for HPE 3PAR StoreServ 20000 storage systems. This particular adapter card provides 2-port 10GB iSCSI FCoE (Fibre Channel over Ethernet) converged networking capability.
Here are some of the key features and benefits of the HPE 782414-001 adapter:
- High-speed networking: The adapter supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) data transfer rates, which provide high-speed networking connectivity between the storage system and servers.
- Converged networking: The adapter supports both iSCSI and FCoE protocols, which enable converged networking and reduce the number of network interface cards required in the server.
- Simplified deployment: The adapter comes pre-configured with the required drivers and firmware, which simplifies the deployment process and reduces the time and effort required to set up the network.
- Improved performance: The adapter supports hardware acceleration for iSCSI and FCoE protocols, which improves the overall performance of the storage system and reduces latency.
- Reduced costs: By consolidating multiple protocols onto a single adapter, the HPE 782414-001 helps reduce the overall cost of ownership by reducing the number of network adapters required in the server.

- Replace the cover of the device and power it on.
- Install the necessary drivers for the adapter on the device by downloading them from the HPE website.
- Configure the adapter settings, such as IP address, subnet mask, and gateway, using the device’s management software.
- Connect the adapter to other devices, such as servers or switches, using an Ethernet cable.
- Test the adapter’s connectivity and performance by transferring data between the 3PAR StoreServ 20000 storage system and the connected devices.
It is important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions and guidelines for installing and setting up the adapter to ensure proper operation and performance. Additionally, it is recommended to consult with an IT professional or refer to the device’s documentation for further assistance.
Configuration and Management
The HPE 782414-001 3PAR StoreServ 20000 2-Port 10GB iSCSI FCoE Converged Network Adapter (CNA) is a network interface card designed to provide high-performance connectivity for HPE 3PAR StoreServ storage systems. The adapter can support both iSCSI and FCoE protocols, which allows it to handle both block and file data traffic.
The configuration and management of the HPE 782414-001 CNA can be performed using HPE OneView, which is a management platform that allows you to manage multiple HPE devices from a single interface. You can use HPE OneView to configure and manage the network settings of the CNA, including IP address, subnet mask, gateway, VLAN, and MTU.
To configure the HPE 782414-001 CNA, you will need to connect it to the network using the 10Gb Ethernet ports on the card. You can then use HPE OneView to configure the network settings of the card, including the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, VLAN, and MTU. Once the network settings are configured, you can use the CNA to connect to your HPE 3PAR StoreServ storage system.
To manage the HPE 782414-001 CNA, you can use HPE OneView to monitor the performance and status of the card. This includes monitoring the traffic on the card, as well as any errors or issues that may occur. You can also use HPE OneView to perform firmware updates and other maintenance tasks on the card.
