5 About IP1200 Series Appliance Network Interface Cards This chapter describes the network interface cards available for the Nokia IP1200 Series appliance and how to connect those NICs to your network. The following NICs are described: „ Four-Port 10/100 Ethernet NICs „ Two-Port and Four-Port Copper Gigabit Ethernet NICs „ Two-Port Fiber-Optic Gigabit Ethernet NICs For instructions about how to add or replace NICs, see Chapter 4, "Installing and Replacing Network Interface Cards and Accelerated Data Path (ADP) Services Modules." The NICs supported in the IP1200 Series operate at the peripheral component interconnect (PCI) frequency listed in Table 11. Table 11 NIC PCI Frequency NIC or interface port Maximum PCI operation supported Four-port 10/100 Ethernet 100 MHz Two-port 10/100 Ethernet 66 MHz Two-port fiber-optic Gigabit Ethernet 100 MHz Two-Port copper Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000) 100 MHz Note Any two NICs installed on a single PMC carrier will both operate at the PCI frequency of the least-capable NIC installed. For example, if a two-port Ethernet NIC and a two-port fiberoptic Gigabit Ethernet NIC are installed on the same PMC card carrier, they both operate at 66 Mhz. Use this information to plan your NIC installation to maximize data throughput on your appliance. IP1220 and IP1260 Security Platforms Installation Guide 57
