1U SteelFusion Edge appliances
The SteelFusion Edge 2100 and SteelFusion Edge 2200 appliances are 1U appliances that can provide
WAN optimization, BlockStream-enabled storage, and hypervisor functionality. (See Figure 1-1.) They
support two independent nodes; each node has its own management and monitoring. The appliances
have four disk drive slots that are numbered 0 to 3. (See Figure 1-2.) The appliances also support
different combinations of network interface cards (NIC) that can be installed in the back of the
appliance. (See Figure 1-3.) Slot 0 on the back of the appliance ships with NIC-2-001G-4TX-BP installed
and is used for RiOS functionality while slot 2 can support an additional NIC also to be used for RiOS or
as a bypass card.
Note: For detailed information on the cards supported for the SteelFusion Edge slot configuration, see “Supported
NICs for SteelFusion Edge appliances” on page 30.
