Abstract: A data storage system includes: a plurality of Ethernet solid-state drive (SSD) chassis including at least one switching Ethernet SSD chassis and one or more switchless Ethernet SSD chassis. The at least one switching Ethernet SSD chassis comprises an Ethernet switch, a first baseboard management controller (BMC), and a first management local area network (LAN) port. At least one of the one or more switchless Ethernet SSD chassis comprises an Ethernet repeater, a second BMC, and a second management LAN port. The first management LAN port of the at least one switching Ethernet SSD chassis and the second management LAN port are connected. The first BMC collects status of the at least one of the one or more switches Ethernet SSD chassis from the second BMC via a connection between the first management LAN port and the second management LAN port and provide device information of the at least one of the one or more switches Ethernet SSD chassis and the at least one switching Ethernet SSD chassis to a system administrator.
