About Ethernet support
Riverbed appliances support these networking standards. An appliance with a Gigabit Ethernet card supports jumbo frames on in-path and primary ports.

Riverbed appliances support these connection types and standards.
Port
Speed
Primary (PRI)
10/100/1000BASE-T, autonegotiating
Auxiliary (AUX)
10/100/1000BASE-T, autonegotiating
LAN
10/100/1000BASE-T or 1000BASE-SX or 1000BASE-LX or 100GBASE-LR4 or 100GBASE-SR4 or 10GBASE-LR or 10GBASE-SR, and 40GBASE-LR4 or 40GBASE-SR4 depending on configuration
WAN
10/100/1000BASE-T or 1000BASE-SX or 1000BASE-LX or 100GBASE-LR4 or 100GBASE-SR4 or 10GBASE-LR or 10GBASE-SR, and 40GBASE-LR4 or 40GBASE-SR4 depending on configuration
Riverbed appliances support VLAN Tagging (IEEE 802.3 - 2008). They do not support the Inter-Switch Link (ISL) protocol.
Riverbed appliances autonegotiate speed and duplex mode for all data rates and support full-duplex mode and flow control (IEEE 802.3 – 2008).
