Note
After you turn on the appliance, the Ethernet link LEDs on both the
appliance and on the remote equipment illuminate to indicate the
connection. As data is transmitted or received, the activity LEDs on the
appliance illuminate.
To connect the IP560 to other network components, you can order appropriate
adapter cables separately from a cable vendor of your choice.
Two-Port Fiber-Optic Gigabit Ethernet NIC
The IP560 supports Nokia-approved, two-port, fiber-optic Gigabit Ethernet
NICs installed on a PMC expansion slot. The IP560 can accommodate up to
four Gigabit Ethernet NICs.
When you purchase a Gigabit Ethernet NIC with your IP560, the NIC is
installed before the appliance is delivered to you. For information about how
to add or replace a NIC, see Chapter 4, “Installing and Replacing Network
Interface Cards.”
