Product ManualXG-7100-1U
1.1.3 Other Ports, Buttons, and Indicators
• Semi-recessed Power (PWR) (performs a graceful shutdown of pfSense software)
• Recessed Reset Button (performs a hard reset, immediately turning the system off)
• 1x USB 3.0
• Status LED
• Power (PWR) LED (green when powered on, red after a graceful shutdown)
• Console (Mini-USB)
• 2x USB 2.0
Note: When a graceful shutdown is performed, the XG-7100 Power (PWR) LED will turn red but will stay lit. The
Ethernet activity LEDs will turn off. The power supply fan will continue to run. Turning off the rocker switch on the
back of the power supply will eliminate all power to the system.
The power button should be depressed 3-5 seconds to initiate a graceful shutdown or to power on the device when the
PWR LED is red.
Warning: A hard reset of the system could cause data corruption and should be avoided. Halt or reboot the
system through the console menu or the web configurator to avoid data corruption.
1.2 XG-7100 Switch Overview
1.2.1 Interface Links
In addition to two SFP+ interfaces, there is also an ethernet switch on the XG-7100. There are eight ethernet ports on
this switch that are physically accessible - these interfaces are referred to as ETH1-ETH8. In addition to those 8 ports,
there are also three additional ports that operate behind the scenes - PORT 0, PORT 9 (ix2), and PORT 10 (ix3).
ETH1-ETH8 are gigabit switchports.
PORT 9-10 are 2.5 Gbps uplink switchports. These two ports connect the ethernet switch to a Denverton SoC. The
SFP+ interfaces (ix0 and ix1) also connect to this SoC.
The diagram below demonstrates how these interfaces are connected:
