Use one or more Category 5/6 Ethernet cables to connect the PT-2200 appliance to the network.

  1. Connect an Ethernet cable from the LAN1 port on the appliance to your network switch or router.

Note: By default, an Infoblox appliance automatically negotiates the optimal connection speed and transmission type (full or half duplex) on the physical links between its LAN1, LAN2 and MGMT ports and the Ethernet ports on a connecting switch. If the two appliances fail to auto-negotiate the optimal settings, see the NIOS Administrator Guide for steps you can take to resolve the problem.

2. Use the Infoblox GUI to access the Infoblox appliance from a management system. Through the Infoblox GUI, you can set up and administer the appliance. For management system requirements and access instructions, see Accessing the Appliance.
