Gigabit Ethernet Port LEDs
The Gigabit Ethernet ports shown in Figure 2-5 are RJ-45 connectors that provide
connection to an Ethernet SAN through a 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet cable.
The ports are labeled GE1 and GE2. Each of these ports supports connections
that run the iSCSI high-level TCP protocol.
Figure 2-5 Gigabit Ethernet Ports
These ports each have two LEDs:
The activity LED (green) lights up when the port transmits or receives data
over the Ethernet connection.
The link status LED (green) lights up continuously when the port establishes
an Ethernet connection.
Ethernet Port— Management
The management Ethernet port shown in Figure 2-6 is an RJ-45 connector that
provides a connection to a management workstation through a 10/100 Base-T
Ethernet cable. The port is labeled MGMT.
Figure 2-6 Ethernet Management Port
A management workstation can be a Windows
®
, Solaris™, or a Linux™
workstation that configures and manages the router. You can manage the router
over an Ethernet connection using SANsurfer Router Manager, CLI, or simple
network management protocol (SNMP).
