Network Ports

Default Ports

When no expansion card is installed, this is the port configuration.

Port	Interface Name	Port Name	Port Type	Port Speed
0	WAN	igb0	RJ-45	1 Gbps
1	LAN	igb1	RJ-45	1 Gbps
2	OPT1	ix0	SFP+	10 Gbps
3	OPT2	ix1	SFP+	10 Gbps

Note

Both the WAN and LAN ports of the Netgate® appliance support auto-MDIX and are capable of utilizing either straight-through or crossover ethernet cables.

Warning

The ix(4) driver used for ports IX0-IX1 does not support ALTQ traffic shaping directly. Limiters may be used instead, or use tagged VLAN interfaces which can be used with ALTQ traffic shaping.

Optional Quad Port Expansion Cards

Default port configuration for 4-port expansion cards.

• 4-port 1GbE Supermicro AOC-SGP-i4

• 4-port 10GbE Intel X710BM2

7	OPT2	OPT2	ix1	ix1	SFP+	SFP+	10 Gbps	10 Gbps

Optional Dual Port Expansion Cards

Default port configuraiton for 2-port expansion cards.

• 2-port 10GbE Chelsio T520-CR

• 2-port 10GbE Intel X710BM2

Port	Interface Name		Port Name		Port Type	Port Speed
#	T520	X710	T520	X710	T520/X710	T520/X710
0	WAN	Unassigned	cxl0	ixl0	SFP+	10 Gbps
1	LAN	Unassigned	cxl1	ixl1	SFP+	10 Gbps
2	OPT1	WAN	igb0	igb0	RJ-45	1 Gbps
3	OPT3	LAN	igb1	igb1	RJ-45	1 Gbps
4	OPT2	OPT1	ix0	ix0	SFP+	10 Gbps
5	OPT4	OPT2	ix1	ix1	SFP+	10 Gbps

Network Port LEDs

Both the RJ-45 and SFP+ Network Ports have LEDs indicating status.

RJ-45 Ports

RJ-45 LEDs Configuration

Activity LED (Left)	Link Speed LED (Right)
Off = No Connection Yellow Flashing = Activity	Amber = 1 Gbps Green = 100 Mbps Off = No Connection or 10 Mbps

Note

Reverse the above table for the bottom port as it is inverted.

SFP+ Ports

SFP+ LEDs Configuration

Left Two LEDs	Right Two LEDs
Off = No Connection Green = Connection Established	Green Blinking = Activity

Note

The triangles point either up or down, indicating the port it is referring to.

Status LEDs

LED	State	Description
8a	Continuously on and red	An overheat condition has occurred. (This may be caused by cable congestion.)
	Blinking red (1Hz)	Fan failure, check for an inoperative fan.
	Blinking red (0.25Hz)	Power failure, check for a non-operational power supply.
	Solid blue	Local UID has been activated. Use this function through IPMI to locate the server in a rack mount environment.
	Blinking blue	Remote UID is on. Use this function through IPMI to identify the server from a remote location.
8b	Flashing	Indicates network activity on igb1 (upper left port).
8c	Flashing	Indicates network activity on igb0 (lower left port).
8d	Flashing	Indicates IDE channel activity on the hard drive.
8e	Illuminated	Indicates power is being supplied to the system power supply units. This LED should normally be illuminated when the system is operating.
	Off	Indicates no power is being supplied to the system power supply. System is powered off.

Other Ports

Port	I/O Type
4	IPMI
5	2x USB 3.0
