Hardware Components

The Network Automation NT-4000 is a 2-U platform that is installed in a seismic equipment rack using mounting

rails and materials that ship with each appliance. For information about rack mounting, see Installing the Network

Automation NT-4000 on page 12.

The front panel comes with a removable front cover.

Connector Pin Assignments

DB-9, RJ-45 and optical connector pin assignments are described in Figure 3. DB-9 pin assignments follow the

EIA232 standard. To make a serial connection from your management system to the console port, use an RJ-45

rollover cable and two female RJ-45-to-female DB-9 adapters. RJ-45 pin assignments follow IEEE 802.3

specifications.

Rear Panel

The Network Automation NT-4000 appliance provides dual AC power supplies. Power supplies are hot swappable;

any single power supply can be replaced without disrupting the operations of the appliance. The Network

Automation NT-4000 also provides two active RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces that operate as MGMT port and LAN1

port in the system. The port assignments are from left to right and reflect port assignments as shown in Figure 4

and listed in Table 3.

Component Description

IPMI Port Reserved for future use. Port is active but unsupported.

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 connect a properly grounded USB-to-Serial dongle 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.

MGMT Port A 10/100/1000-Mbps gigabit Ethernet port used for appliance management. You must

use the MGMT port for initial appliance setup and for primary system operation. The

MGMT port may also be used for scan interface connections to managed networks.

Infoblox recommends retaining the MGMT port exclusively for appliance management

traffic.

LAN1 Port A 10/100/1000-Mbps gigabit Ethernet port that is used for scan interface connections

to managed networks. You can enable the LAN1 port and define its use through the GUI

after the initial setup. For related information, see Configuring Scan Interfaces on page

40 of the Network Automation Administrator’s Guide, Release 6.9.
