NIC Status Lights for xx70 and Interceptor 9600 Appliances
This appendix summarizes the status lights for the NICs supported by xx70 and Interceptor 9600 appliances. It includes the following sections:
•  Four-Port 1-GbE Copper Bypass Card
•  Two-Port 1-GbE Fiber SX Card
•  Four-Port 1-GbE Fiber SX Card
•  Two-Port 1-GbE Fiber LX Card
•  Four-Port 1-GbE Fiber LX Card
•  Two-Port 10-GbE Fiber SR Card
•  Two-Port 10-GbE Fiber LR Card
•  Four-Port 1-GbE Copper Base-T Card
•  Two-Port 10-GbE Copper Card
•  Four-Port 10-GbE Copper Card
•  Four-Port 1-GbE Fiber/Copper SFP Card
•  Two-Port 10-GbE Fiber SFP+ Card
•  Four-Port 10-GbE Fiber SFP+ Card
This appendix assumes you have installed and configured the appliance. For details, see the installation and configuration guide for your product.
Note: The physical ports on the NICs are mapped in proximity to the PCI bus edge connector. The port closest to the edge connector is L0, then W0, L1, and W1.
Note: For detailed information about status lights and cards in the EX560 and EX760 appliances, see the Series EX560 and EX760 Systems Owner’s Manual.
Four-Port 1-GbE Copper Bypass Card
There are two types of four-port 1-GbE copper bypass cards available. Both types can be installed in the 1U SteelHead CX 3070 and the 2U SteelHead CX 5070, SteelHead CX 7070 and the Interceptor 9600 appliances.
Type 2 cards are supported on the following software versions:
•  SteelHead versions: 8.6.0, 9.0.0, 9.1.0 and 9.2.0
•  Interceptor versions: 4.5.3, 5.5.0, and 5.0.1
Note: The physical ports on the NICs are mapped in proximity to the PCI bus edge connector. The port closest to the edge connector is L0, then W0, L1, and W1.
