the Ethernet ports on the NIOS appliance perform different functions. The Ethernet ports that handle traffic on the NIOS appliance are as follows:

  • LAN1 port – A 10/100/1000-Mbps gigabit Ethernet port that connects the appliance to the network. This is the default port for single independent appliances, single Grid members, and passive nodes in HA pairs. You must use the LAN1 port to set up the appliance initially. It handles traffic for all management services if you do not enable the MGMT and LAN2 ports. The passive node in an HA pair uses this port to synchronize the database with the active node.
  • LAN2 port – A 10/100/1000-Mbps gigabit Ethernet port that connects the appliance to the network. The LAN2 port is not enabled by default. You can enable the LAN2 port and define its use through the GUI after the initial setup. By default, the appliance uses the LAN1 port (and HA port when deployed in an HA pair). To enable and configure the LAN2 port, you must have read/write permission to the Grid member on which you want to enable the port. The LAN2 port is available on the TE-810, TE-820, TE-1410, TE-1420, TE-2210, TE-2220, and IB-4010 appliances. For information about how to use the LAN2 port, see Using the LAN2 Port.
  • HA port – A 10/100/1000-Mbps gigabit Ethernet port through which the active node in an HA (high availability) pair connects to the network using a VIP (virtual IP) address. HA pair nodes also use their HA ports for VRRP (Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol) advertisements.
  • MGMT port – A 10/100/1000-Mbps gigabit Ethernet port that you can use for appliance management or DNS service. You can enable the MGMT port and define its use through the GUI after the initial setup. If the MGMT port is enabled, the NIOS appliance uses it for management services (see bookmark906 22249600 for specific types).

You can do the following on some of the Ethernet ports, depending on your network requirements and configurations:

  • Assign VLANs (Virtual LANs) to the LAN1 and LAN2 ports so that NIOS can provide DNS service to different subnetworks on the same interface. For more information about VLANs, see bookmark899 22249600.
  • Implement DiffServ (Differentiated Services) on the appliance by configuring the DSCP (Differentiated Services Code Point) value. For more information about DiffServ and DSCP, see bookmark901 bookmark901 22249600 22249600

You can assign VLANs (Virtual Local Area Networks) to the LAN1, LAN2, and VIP (for HA pairs) interfaces so the appliance can provide DNS service to different subnetworks on the same interface. You can also configure VLANs interfaces on supported Network Insight appliances and use them exclusively for discovery purposes. VLANs are independent logical networks that are mutually isolated on the interface so that IP packets can pass between them through one or more switches or routers. You can assign VLANs to provide segmentation services to address issues such as scalability, security, and network management. For example, you can partition your network into segments such as DHCP address allocation, DNS service, guest network, and DMZ (demilitarized zone) to achieve a higher level of security and to increase performance by limiting broadcast domains. You can also add quality of service schemes to optimize your network traffic on the VLAN trunk links by configuring the DSCP (Differentiated Services Code Point) value for the corresponding physical and virtual interfaces. For information about DSCP, see bookmark901 bookmark901 22249600 22249600.

...

Note: When you configure VLANs on the following Network Insight appliances: ND-1400, ND-1405, ND-2200, ND-2205, ND-4000, ND-V1400 ND-V1405, ND-V2200, and ND-V2205, the VLAN interfaces are used exclusively for discovery. You cannot bind other services on these VLAN interfaces of the supported Network Insight appliances. For more information about Network Insight, see About Network Insight.

...

VLANs and VLAN tagging are supported on both IPv4 and IPv6 transports. This feature is currently supported on the following Infoblox appliances: Trinzic 1410, 1415, 1420, 1425, 2210, 2215, 2220, 2225, Infoblox-4010, Infoblox-4030-Rev1, Infoblox-4030-Rev2, Infoblox-4030-10G, PT-1400, PT-1405, PT-2200, PT-2205, PT-4000, PT-4000-10GE, TE-1410, TE-1420, TE-1415, and TE-1425. VLAN tagging is not supported on TE-100, TE-810, TE-815, TE-820, and TE-825. For more information about VLAN support for an Infoblox-4030 appliance, refer to the DNS Cache Acceleration Application Guide. For information about these appliances, refer to the respective installation guides on the Infoblox Support web site at http://www.infoblox.com/support.
Currently, only the DNS service can listen on specific VLAN interfaces. The DHCP service listens only on the primary VLAN interface (tagged or untagged). You can also specify VLANs as the source port for sending DNS queries and notify messages. For information about how to configure these, see Specifying Port Settings for DNS.
Additional VLAN support is available exclusively for discovery on the following Network Insight appliances: ND-1400, ND-1405, ND-2200, ND-2205, ND-4000, ND-V1400, ND-V1405, ND-V2200, and ND-V2205. Binding other services on
the VLAN interfaces of the Network Insight appliances is not supported.

...

When you first set up a NIOS appliance, you can assign VLANs through the Grid Setup Wizard. For more information, see Using the Setup Wizard. After the initial setup, you can assign VLANs to the LAN1 or LAN2 ports in the Required Ports and Addresses table, as described in bookmark908 22249600.
On a Grid member, you can assign up to 10 VLANS for each protocol (IPv4 or IPv6) on the LAN1 and LAN2 ports. You can assign up to 10 IPv4 VLAN addresses and 10 IPv6 VLAN addresses for each interface. You can configure only IPv4 VLAN addresses for an IPv4 Grid member and only IPv6 VLAN addresses for an IPv6 Grid member, but for a dual mode Grid member you can configure both IPv4 and IPv6 VLAN addresses.
