The NetScaler SDX 26000-100G appliances have the following ports:
-
RS232 serial Console Port.
-
One 10/100/1000Base-T RJ45 copper Ethernet LOM Port. Use this port to remotely monitor and manage the appliance independently of the NetScaler software.
-
Two 10/100/1000Base-T RJ45 copper Ethernet Management Ports, numbered 0/1 and 0/2. These ports are used to connect directly to the appliance for NetScaler administration functions.
-
Eight 100G Ethernet Ports, numbered 100/1 to 100/8 from left to right. For information about supported transceivers per port, see 25G, 40G, 50G, and 100G ports.
Figure 2. NetScaler SDX 26000-100G back panel
The following components are visible on the back panel of the SDX 26000-100G appliances:
- Two 240 GB removable boot solid-state drives (SSDs).
-
Six 960 GB removable SSDs.
Note: Drive densities might increase as components become EOL but its size is never smaller than the original.
- Power switch, which turns power to the appliance on or off.
- If the OS is functional, press the switch for less than two seconds to power down the system with a graceful shutdown.
- If the OS is not responsive, press the power switch for more than 4 seconds to force the power off.
- Two power supplies, 100–240 VAC. Each power supply has an LED indicating its status, as described in the following table:
| LED Color | LED Indicates |
|---|---|
| OFF | No power to any power supply on the appliance. |
| Flashing RED | No power to this power supply. |
| Flashing GREEN | Power supply is in standby mode. |
| GREEN | Power supply is functional. |
| RED | Power supply failure. |
| Flashing RED and GREEN | Warning (OVP/UVP/OCP/OTP/Fan); OVP = Over Voltage Protection; UVP = Under Voltage Protection; OCP = Over Current Protection; OTP = Over Temperature Protection. |
- Disable alarm button, which is functional only when the appliance has dual redundant, hot-swappable power supplies. Press this button to silence the power alarm when one of the two power supplies loses input power or when a power supply is malfunctioning.
- Non-Maskable Interrupt (NMI) Button, used at the request of Technical Support to initiate a core dump. To press this red button, which is recessed to prevent unintentional activation, use a pen, pencil, or other pointed object. The NMI Button is also available remotely over the network in the LOM GUI, in the Remote Control menu.
