Network Insight ND-4000 Rear Panel

The Network Insight ND-4000 appliance offers a choice of dual AC power supplies, or dual DC power supplies with or without NEBS-3 compliance. In all cases, power supplies are hot swappable; any single power supply can be replaced without disrupting the operations of the appliance.  
 The Network Insight ND-4000 provides three (3) RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces that operate as the MGMT port, LAN1 port and LAN2 port in the Infoblox system. (The HA port is inactive and cannot be used for networking applications.) The three port assignments are from left to right and reflect standard Infoblox port assignments as  shown in *<span style="color: #0000ff">[Figure 9](https://infoblox-docs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/IIGFIIPNINP/pages/14516383/Infoblox-4010+Rev-2#Infoblox-4010Rev-2-bookmark20)</span>* and listed in *<span style="color: #0000ff">[Table](https://infoblox-docs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/IIGFIIPNINP/pages/14516383/Infoblox-4010+Rev-2#Infoblox-4010Rev-2-bookmark23)</span>*[ ](https://infoblox-docs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/IIGFIIPNINP/pages/14516383/Infoblox-4010+Rev-2#Infoblox-4010Rev-2-bookmark23)*<span style="color: #0000ff">[6](https://infoblox-docs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/IIGFIIPNINP/pages/14516383/Infoblox-4010+Rev-2#Infoblox-4010Rev-2-bookmark23)</span>*. *<span style="color: #0000ff">[Figure 12](#NetworkInsightND-4000HardwareComponents-bookmark26)</span>* illustrates the optional ND-4000 system configuration with SFP ports.

Network Insight ND-4000 Optical Interfaces

Infoblox offers a version of the Network Insight ND-4000 that provides three 1-Gigabit Ethernet (1GbE) interfaces that accept SFP transceiver modules, for 1GbE optical connectivity. Another offered version of the Network Insight  ND-4000 supports three 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) interfaces that accept SFP+ transceiver modules, for 10GbE optical or copper connectivity.  
 In all cases, Network Insight appliances use the LAN1 and LAN2 ports for connectivity to networks for device discovery, and the MGMT port is reserved for appliance management.  
 In select configurations, Infoblox 1GbE SFP or 10GbE SFP+ ports replace the functionality in the original system MGMT, LAN1, HA and LAN2 ports, thereby disabling the original system MGMT, LAN1, HA and LAN2 ports.  
 10GbE interfaces accept Infoblox-provided SFP+ 10GbE Short Range and Long Range transceivers, Cisco SFP+ Direct Attach 10GSFP+Cu, or HP HPJ9283B SFP+ Direct Attach 10GSFP+Cu transceivers.  
 You may mix media types in the set of ports (e.g., two copper interfaces and two fiber interfaces).  
 SFP and SFP+ transceivers also may be used in a mixed configuration in the offered 3-Port 10GbE configuration. One possible use case involves installing 10GbE SR SFP+ transceivers in the LAN1 and LAN2 ports for the Infoblox-4010 appliance, and installing 1GbE SFP copper transceivers in the MGMT interface.

*Table 8* *Rear* *Panel* *Components for the Network Insight ND-4000*

| **Component** | **Description** |
| --- | --- |
| MGMT Port | A port for use with appliance management or DNS service. You can enable the MGMT port and define its use through the Infoblox GUI. |
| LAN1 Port | A port that connects a NIOS appliance to the network. You must use the LAN1 port to set up the appliance initially. It handles all traffic if you do not enable the MGMT and LAN2 ports. |
| HA Port | Inactive for Network Insight ND-4000 appliances. |
| LAN2 Port | A port that connects a NIOS appliance to the network. The LAN2 port is not enabled by default. You can enable the LAN2 port and define its use through the Infoblox GUI after the initial setup. |
| Console Port | A male DB-9 serial port for a console connection to change basic configuration settings and view basic system functions through the CLI (command line interface).  
 Only a properly grounded USB-to-Serial dongle is allowed to connect to the serial console port. If the dongle is connected to a laptop, this laptop must be grounded properly as well. Failure to do so may result in damage to the serial console port of the Infoblox appliance. Infoblox is not responsible for such damage. For DB-9 pin assignments, see *<span style="color: #0000ff">[Figure 5](https://infoblox-docs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/IIGFIIPNINP/pages/14516392/Infoblox-4010+Rev-1#Infoblox-4010Rev-1-bookmark12)</span>*[.](https://infoblox-docs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/IIGFIIPNINP/pages/14516392/Infoblox-4010+Rev-1#Infoblox-4010Rev-1-bookmark12) |
| iLO/IPMI Port | Dedicated Ethernet port used for LOM (integrated Lights Out Management) with specific releases of NIOS. Ensure that the IPMI port is properly connected to the network before you configure LOM through the Infoblox GUI for remote management. |
| VGA Port | This port is not supported. Use the console port or LAN1 port for initial setup. |
| USB Ports | Reserved for future use. |
| Power Supplies | Each of the two redundant power supplies has a power outlet for connecting the appliance to a standard DC (Direct Current) or AC power source. |
| Power Supply LEDs | Green = Normal<br>Off = System is off or power supply has failed. |
| UID LED | Turns on blue to indicate device that is currently being interacted with in the rack. Turned on by pressing the UID button on the front panel. See *<span style="color: #0000ff">[Table](https://infoblox-docs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/IIGFIIPNINP/pages/14516392/Infoblox-4010+Rev-1#Infoblox-4010Rev-1-bookmark5)</span>*[ ](https://infoblox-docs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/IIGFIIPNINP/pages/14516392/Infoblox-4010+Rev-1#Infoblox-4010Rev-1-bookmark5)*<span style="color: #0000ff">[1](https://infoblox-docs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/IIGFIIPNINP/pages/14516392/Infoblox-4010+Rev-1#Infoblox-4010Rev-1-bookmark5)</span>*. |
