The Network Automation NT-4000 appliance provides dual AC power supplies. Power supplies are hot swappable;
any single power supply can be replaced without disrupting the operations of the appliance. The Network
Automation NT-4000 also provides two active RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces that operate as MGMT port and LAN1
port in the system. The port assignments are from left to right and reflect port assignments as shown in
