Citrix ADC MPX
For more information about LAGs, see Configuring Link Aggregation. For details on the type and num‑
ber of ports available on your appliance, see the section describing that platform.
Note
Citrix ADC appliances use the Receive Side Scaling (RSS) feature to optimally distribute and pro‑
cesstraic. The RSS implementation is based on Toeplitz hashing which distributes the packet
among its queues based on the 5‑tuple: TCP/IP protocol, source IP address, destination IP ad‑
dress, source port, and destination port.
RS232 serial port
The RS232 serial console port provides a connection between the appliance and a computer, allowing
direct access to the appliance for initial configuration and troubleshooting.
All hardware platforms ship with an appropriate serial cable used to connect your computer to the
appliance. For instructions on connecting your computer to the appliance, see Install the Hardware.
Copper Ethernet ports
The copper Ethernet ports installed on many models of the appliance are standard RJ45 ports.
There are two types of copper Ethernet ports that can be installed on your appliance:
• 10/100BASE‑T port
The 10/100BASE‑T port has a maximum transmission speed of 100 megabits per second (Mbps).
Most platforms have at least one 10/100BASE‑T port.
• 10/100/1000BASE‑T port
The 10/100/1000BASE‑T port has a maximum transmission speed of 1 gigabit per second, 10
times faster than the other type of copper Ethernet port.
Most platforms have at least one 10/100/1000Base‑T port.
To connect any of these ports to your network, plug one end of a standard Ethernet cable into the
port. Plug the other end into the appropriate network connector.
Management ports
Management ports are standard copper Ethernet ports (RJ45). They are used for direct access to the
appliance for system administration functions.
