Infoblox-250 Appliance

The Infoblox-250 appliance is a 1-U platform that you can easily mount in a standard equipment rack using the

mounting brackets and bolts shipped with each device. The front panel components include communication ports

and indicator lights. The back panel components include the power connector and switch, fan and air vent, and the

model and serial number label.

Front Panel

The Infoblox-250 has the following ports (10/100/1000)—two LAN ports, one HA port, one management port, one

console port, and one USB port. It does not have an LCD or keypad.

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. The

Speed LED is on the top-left of the port, and the Link/Act LED is on the top-right. These LEDs are labeled on the

Infoblox-250. Table 2 shows the port status that corresponds to the various LED colors and illumination (steady

glow or blinking).

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

device to make a console connection to this port.

Drive Indicator An LED that flashes green to indicate when the hard drive processes data.

Power Indicator An LED that glows green to indicate when there is power to the device.

MGMT Port The Infoblox-250 has a 10/100/1000-Mbps fast Ethernet port that you can use

for device management or DNS service. You can enable the MGMT port and

define its use through the GUI.

HA Port A 10/100/1000-Mbps fast 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.

LAN Port The LAN1 port on the Infoblox-250 is a 10/100/1000-Mbps fast Ethernet port

that connects a single device to the network. If the MGMT port is not in use, a

single Infoblox-250 uses the LAN1 port for management traffic. The passive

node in an HA pair uses this port to synchronize the database with the active

node.

LAN2 Port Reserved for future use.

Connector Pin Assignments

The Infoblox-250 appliance has four types of ports on the front panel:

•USB port (reserved for future use)

•Male DB-9 console port

•RJ-45 10Base-T/100Base-T/1000Base-T Ethernet ports

Figure 3 shows the DB-9 and RJ-45 connector pin assignments. 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 device, 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.

Installing the Appliance

Follow these instructions to rack mount the appliance, connect it to a power source, and cable it to a network.

Review the Safety Guide and follow the necessary precautions before you start.

Rack Mounting

The appliance mounts into a standard 19” (48 cms) equipment rack. In addition to the screws and brackets that ship

with the product, you also need a screwdriver with a cross-headed tip.

Attach the brackets to the appliance, and mount it to an equipment rack.

1. Remove the four screws that ship attached to the left and right sides of the appliance—two screws per side.

2. Remove the pair of brackets from the accessory kit that ships with the appliance.

3. Position one bracket so that the two holes in the bracket align with two of the holes on one side of the

appliance.

Note: There are five evenly spaced holes on each side of the appliance. You can secure the brackets to any two

adjacent holes so that you can mount the appliance more or less deeply in the rack.

4. Secure the bracket to the appliance with two of the screws that you removed previously.

5. Secure the second bracket in the same position on the other side of the appliance.

6. Using the screws from the accessory kit, attach the brackets to the equipment rack.

Powering the Appliance

Use the power cable that ships with the Infoblox appliance to connect it to a power source.

1. Make sure the power switch on the appliance is turned off.

2. Connect a power cable between the power connector on the back of the appliance and a properly grounded and

rated power circuit that meets the provisions of the current edition of the National Electrical Code, or other

wiring rules that apply to your location. Make sure the outlet is near the appliance and is easily accessible.

3. Turn on the power switch.

Installing the Appliance

10 Infoblox Installation Guide

Cabling the Appliance to a Network

To connect the appliance to the network:

1. Connect an Ethernet cable from the LAN1 port on the Infoblox appliance to your network switch or router.

2. If you want to connect your appliance for HA (high availability), connect the HA ports on both appliances to the

same switch or router used in step 1. The VIP (Virtual IP), LAN (or LAN1), and HA port addresses must be on the

same subnet and must be unique for the subnet.

Note: The LAN2 port is reserved for future use.

Figure 5 Cabling a Single Appliance and an HA Pair to a Network

Note: By default, an Infoblox appliance automatically negotiates the optimal connection speed and

transmission type (full or half duplex) on the physical links between its LAN1, HA, and MGMT ports and the

Ethernet ports on a connecting switch. If the two appliances fail to auto-negotiate the optimal settings, see the

Infoblox Administrator Guide

for steps you can take to resolve the problem.

3. HA pair: To ensure that VRRP (Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol) works properly, configure the following

settings on the connecting switch:

—Portfast: enable

—Trunking: disable

—Port list: disable

—Port channeling: disable

4. Use the Infoblox GUI to access the Infoblox appliance from a management system. Through the GUI, you can

set up and administer the appliance. For management system requirements and access instructions, see

Accessing the Appliance on page 11.
