Why each option
Data ONTAP 8.2 supports the Cisco Nexus 5596 and NetApp CN1610 as qualified cluster interconnect switches for high-speed intra-cluster communication.
The Cisco Nexus 5596 is a qualified 10GbE cluster interconnect switch supported by NetApp for clustered Data ONTAP 8.2 deployments.
The Cisco MDS9124 is a Fibre Channel director-class switch used in SAN fabrics, not a supported cluster interconnect switch.
The CN5010 is not a supported or recognized cluster interconnect switch for Data ONTAP 8.2 in NetApp's hardware compatibility matrix.
The NetApp CN1610 is NetApp's own purpose-built cluster interconnect switch, fully qualified and supported for clustered Data ONTAP 8.2 cluster networks.
