Powering the Appliance

Note: To prevent possible data corruption, Infoblox recommends connecting power for the Network Automation appliance through an uninterruptible power supply (UPS).

The Network Automation NT-2200 ships with two (2) hot-swappable AC power supply modules, labeled PS1 and PS2. Infoblox recommends using the power cables shipped with the appliance to connect each power supply to separate power circuits. In the event of a power failure on one circuit, the appliance operates on the other circuit.
To power the appliance, do the following:
For each power supply, connect a power cable between the power connector on the back of the appliance and a properly grounded and rated power circuit that meets the provisions of the current edition of the National Electrical Code, or other wiring rules that apply to your location. Make sure that the outlet is near the appliance and is easily accessible. Use the power cable that ships with the Infoblox appliance to connect it to a power source.

1. Make sure that both power switches are off.
2. Use both power cables to connect each power supply to rated power circuits that meet the provisions of the current edition of the National Electrical Code, or other wiring rules that apply to your location. Connect each power supply to separate power circuits, if possible. If one power circuit fails, the other may still be operative.
3. Turn on both power switches.
