Installing a Network Interface Card Note In the Nokia 100i, you cannot use two PMC four-port 10/100 Ethernet network cards at the same time. However, you can use one PMC fourport 10/100 Ethernet NIC in combination with any other NIC that the Nokia 100i supports. For connectors and cable information for the four-port 10/100 Ethernet NIC, see "Ethernet Management Ports" on page 35. Caution Cables that connect to the Ethernet NIC must be IEEE 802.3 compliant to prevent potential data loss. Installing a Fiber Optic or Copper Gigabit Ethernet NIC This section provides information about the PMC fiber optic or copper Gigabit Ethernet network interface cards (NICs), which you can use with the Nokia 100i gateway. The fiber optic Gigabit Ethernet NICs provide the following features: ! High bandwidth ! Full-duplex mode operation up to 1 Gbps (no half-duplex support) ! Link speed autoadvertising ! Compliance with IEEE 802.3z Gigabit Ethernet specification You can configure and manage Ethernet interfaces with Nokia VPN Manager software. See Chapter 4, Installing Nokia VPN Manager and the Gateway in the Nokia IP VPN Gateway Configuration Guide. To physically install the fiber optic or copper Ethernet NIC, see "Installing a Network Interface Card by Using Nokia VPN Manager" on page 46. Nokia 100i Installation Guide 55
