Ethernet Port LEDs
To see the link activity and connection speed of an Ethernet port, you can look at its Activity and Link LEDs. shows the status the LEDs convey Figure 2
through their color and illumination (steady glow or blinking).

SFP/SFP+ Interface Support
All models in the Infoblox 2205 Series support optional interfaces to accept SFP transceiver modules, for 1GbE optical connectivity. summarizes Table 2
SFP and SFP+ support for appliance models in the Infoblox 2205 series.
Note: You cannot add SFP/SFP+ support after you have purchased an appliance model that does not have the SFP/SFP+ interfaces pre-installed.
Contact your Infoblox representatives if you are interested in purchasing appliances that support SFP/SFP+ interfaces.
To support connectivity to 10 Gigabit networking infrastructure, Infoblox also offers versions of the Trinzic TE-2215, TE-2225, Network Insight ND-2205
and Trinzic Reporting TR-2205 that provide 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) interfaces accepting SFP+ transceiver modules, for 10GbE RJ-45 copper or
optical connectivity.
The Trinzic TE-2215 and Trinzic TE-2225 appliances support four active 10GbE interfaces in the optional 1GbE SFP and 10GbE SFP+ configurations.
Other appliances in the Infoblox 2205 series, comprising the ND-2205 and TR-2205, support three active interfaces in the optional 1GbE SFP and 10GbE
SFP+ configurations. The port designated HA for these three models is inactive for these appliances. Order of ports from left to right is otherwise the same.
The Advanced Appliance PT-2205 supports accelerated 10GbE connectivity in a factory-only configuration, and supports HA.
In optional configurations for the Infoblox 2205 series (any appliance that does not use the internal Ethernet ports), the Infoblox 1GbE SFP or 10GbE SFP+
ports replace the functionality in the original system MGMT, LAN1, HA and LAN2 ports, thereby disabling the built-in MGMT, LAN1, HA and LAN2 ports.
10GbE support accepts Infoblox-provided SFP+ 10GbE Short Range and Long Range transceivers, Cisco SFP+ Direct Attach 10GSFP+Cu, or HP
HPJ9283B SFP+ Direct Attach 10GSFP+Cu transceivers.
You may mix media types in the set of ports (e.g., one copper SFP in the MGMT port and two or three fiber SFPs).
SFP and SFP+ transceivers also may be used in a mixed configuration in a 4-Port 10GbE system. One example involves installing 10GbE SR SFP+
transceivers in the LAN1 and LAN2 ports for the Trinzic TE-2215 or TE-2225 appliance, and installing 1GbE SFP copper transceivers in the MGMT and
HA interfaces.
Note: For ND-2205 and TR-2215 models configured with 1GbE SFP or 10GbE SFP+ interfaces, the HA port is reserved for future use and cannot be used
for network applications. Order of ports from left to right is otherwise the same.
