The Network Insight ND-805 is a high performance network appliance that provides an expanded device discovery and network discovery feature set, using SNMP and other protocols to discover, query, and catalogue network devices such as enterprise Ethernet switches, routers, firewalls and other security devices, VoIP softswitches, load balancers, and end host devices. You can configure and manage the ND-805 through the Grid Manager. For more information about Discovery features and licensing, refer to the Infoblox NIOS Administrator Guide.
Key features of the ND-805 appliance include the following:
- Three (3) active 1GbE Ethernet interfaces: two (2) active interfaces to support Device Discovery features, and one interface (MGMT) designated for device management (the HA port is inactive and reserved for future use)
- Management through the Infoblox Grid
- LOM (Lights Out Management) support
Note: The Network Insight ND-805 does not support HA operation and only acts as a Grid member.
