1GbE Copper NIC

The supported card type for a 1GbE copper NIC on a Web Gateway appliance is Intel i350-T4v2.

The ports on the copper card and, consequently, their interface names are numbered in reverse order, compared to their locations on the rear of an appliance.

When a copper card is installed on the WBG-4500-C appliance model, the pre-installed onboard dual port card must first be removed. The model is left with only two onboard network interfaces then, so the numbering and order of the additional interface names is, from left to right, as follows.

eth5 – eth4 – eth3 – eth2

On the other models, the order is as follows.

eth7 – eth6 – eth5 – eth4

The following diagram shows the position of the interfaces provided by a copper card and their names on the rear of the WBG-4500-C appliance model.

On the rear of the WBG-5000-C appliance model, the positions of these interfaces are as follows.
