Introduction

Hardware Components
The Infoblox-1852-A appliance is a 1-U platform that you can easily mount in a standard equipment rack using the
mounting brackets and bolts that ship with each appliance. The front panel components include the LCD (liquid
crystal display) panel and navigation buttons, communication ports, and indicator lights. The back panel
components include the air vent and redundant power supplies, which have power connectors, on/off switches,
and fans.
Front Panel
The panel components are shown in Figure 2 and described in Table 1. For explanations of the Ethernet port LEDs,
and console and Ethernet port connector pin assignments, see Ethernet Port LEDs on page 6 and Connector Pin
Assignments on page 6.

Table 1 Front Panel Components
Component Description
LCD Panel An LCD screen that displays HA (high availability) status, network settings, software
version number, hardware serial number, and software licenses. You can view and
configure the IP address, netmask, and gateway for the LAN1 port.
Navigation
Buttons
Buttons that allow you to enter the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway of the LAN1
port through the LCD. Use the Up and Down arrow buttons to specify numbers and the
Left and Right buttons to navigate across digits. You must specify whether to save input
(OK) or discard it (CNCL). Selecting CNCL at any time returns you to the previous entry.
Entering OK on the third screen returns you to the system status screen.
USB Port Reserved for future use.
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). Use the
serial cable and connection adapters that ship with the appliance to make a console
connection to this port.
Only a properly grounded USB-to-Serial dongle is allowed to connect 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.
Drive Indicator An LED that flashes green to indicate when the hard drive processes data.
Power Indicator An LED that glows green when at least one power supply has power. It is off when
neither power supply has power.
MGMT Port A 10/100/1000-Mbps gigabit Ethernet port that you can use for appliance management
or DNS service. You can enable the MGMT port and define its use through the GUI after
the initial setup.
HA Port A 10/100/1000-Mbps gigabit Ethernet port through which the active node in an HA
(high availability) pair connects to the network using a VIP (virtual IP) address. HA pair
nodes also use their HA ports for VRRP (Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol)
advertisements.
LAN1 Port A 10/100/1000-Mbps gigabit Ethernet port that connects a NIOS appliance to the
network. You must use the LAN1 port to set up the appliance initially. It handles all
traffic if you do not enable the MGMT and LAN2 ports. The passive node in an HA pair
uses this port to synchronize the database with the active node.
LAN2 Port A 10/100/1000-Mbps gigabit Ethernet port that connects a NIOS appliance to the
network. The LAN2 port is not enabled by default. You can enable the LAN2 port and
define its use through the GUI after the initial setup.

Ethernet Port LEDs
To see the link activity and connection speed of an Ethernet port, you can look at its Link/Act and Speed LEDs.
Figure 3 shows the status the LEDs convey through their color and illumination (steady glow or blinking).
Figure 3 LEDs
Connector Pin Assignments
An Infoblox appliance has three types of ports on its front panel:
•USB port (reserved for future use)
•Male DB-9 console port
•RJ-45 10Base-T/100Base-T/1000Base-T auto-sensing gigabit Ethernet ports
The DB-9 and RJ-45 connector pin assignments are described in Figure 4. The DB-9 pin assignments follow the
EIA232 standard. To make a serial connection from your management system to the console port, you can use the
RJ-45 rollover cable and two female RJ-45-to-female DB-9 adapters that ship with the appliance, or a female DB-9-to-
female DB-9 null modem cable. The RJ-45 pin assignments follow IEEE 802.3 specifications. All Infoblox Ethernet
ports are auto-sensing and automatically adjust to standard straight-through and cross-over ethernet cables.
10Base-T Ethernet and 100Base-T fast Ethernet use the same two pairs of wires. The twisted pair of wires
connecting to pins 1 and 2 transmit data, and the twisted pair connecting to pins 3 and 6 receive data. For
1000Base-T connections, all four twisted-pair wires are used for bidirectional traffic.
