The Trinzic 1405 series appliances can be made compliant with CC and FIPS 140-2 security standards. For the list of Trinzic appliances that can be made CC and FIPS compliant, see the Common Criteria and FIPS Compliant Appliances section in the the Infoblox NIOS 8.5 Documentation. Both CC and FIPS give assurance that the product satisfies a set of internationally recognized security measures. CC is a set of rules and specifications to evaluate the security of Information Technology (IT) products. FIPS is a U.S government computer security standard that is designed to validate product modules that use cryptography. This is necessary to maintain the integrity and confidentiality of the end-user information that is stored, processed, and transferred by the product module. To ensure that your appliance is CC and FIPS compliant, make sure that your hardware and software settings match the evaluated configuration that was certified for both CC and FIPS. For information about how to configure CC and FIPS, refer to the Infoblox NIOS Administrator Guide.

SFP/SFP+ Interface Support
All models in the Infoblox 1405 Series support optional interface configurations to accept SFP transceiver modules, for 1GbE optical connectivity.
To support connectivity to 10 Gigabit networking infrastructure, Infoblox also offers versions of the TE-1415, TE-1425, Network Insight ND-1405 and Trinzic Reporting TR-1405 that provide 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) interfaces accepting SFP+ transceiver modules for 10GbE RJ-45 copper or optical network connectivity. Figure 3 shows an Infoblox 1405 Series appliance with optical interfaces.
Table 2 summarizes SFP and SFP+ support for appliance models in the Infoblox 1405 Series.

You cannot add SFP/SFP+ support after you have purchased an appliance model that does not have the SFP/SFP+ interfaces pre-installed. Contact your Infoblox representatives if you are interested in purchasing appliances that support SFP/SFP+ interfaces. |

...
In optional configurations for select Infoblox 1405 Series appliances, 1GbE SFP and 10GbE SFP+ ports replace the functionality in the original built-in MGMT, LAN1, HA and LAN2 ports, thereby disabling the built-in ports as indicated in Figure3. 10GbE support accepts Infoblox-provided SFP+ 10GbE Short Range and Long Range transceivers, Cisco SFP+ Direct Attach 10GSFP+Cu, or HP HPJ9283B SFP+ Direct Attach 10GSFP+Cu transceivers.
You may mix media types in the set of ports (e.g., two copper interfaces and two fiber interfaces).
You may use SFP and SFP+ transceivers in a mixed configuration in 4-Port 10GbE appliances. An example use case involves installing 10GbE SR SFP+ transceivers in the LAN1 and LAN2 ports for the TE- 1415 or TE-1425 appliance, and installing 1GbE SFP copper transceivers in the MGMT and HA interfaces.
| Note | ||

For ND-1405 and TR-1405 appliance models configured with 1GbE SFP or 10GbE SFP+ interfaces, the HA port is reserved for future use and cannot be used for network applications. Order of ports from left to right is otherwise the same. (The PT-1405 does not support 10GbE operation, but supports HA.) |

Interface Connector Pin Assignments
An Infoblox appliance has three types of ports on its front panel:
...
Figure 4 describes DB-9 and RJ-45 connector pin assignments. The DB-9 pin assignments follow the EIA232 standard. To make a serial connection from your management system to the console port, you can use an RJ-45 rollover cable and two female RJ-45-to-female DB-9 adapters, or a female DB-9-to-female DB-9 null modem cable. The RJ-45 pin assignments follow IEEE 802.3 specifications. All Infoblox Ethernet ports are auto-sensing and automatically adjust to standard straight-through and cross-over Ethernet cables.Anchor
