•
Two 10/100/1000 BASE-T network ports. Port 3 is the primary management port. Both ports can be
configured as a monitoring port, management port, management and flow target, or management and
RPCAP/ERSPAN/VXLAN target.
•
Four 100 GbE-capable ports on two network adapters. These ports are the high-performance monitoring
(capture) interfaces.

Note:
The packet processing capability of the appliance is 100 Gbps. While it is possible to
oversubscribe the appliance by sending more than 100 Gbps of packet data across the four
100 GbE-capable ports, inbound workloads that exceed 100 Gbps will result in dropped
packets.
Set up the appliance
1. Rack mount the Discover appliance.
Install the Discover appliance in your data center with the included rack-mounting kit. The mounting kit
supports most four-post racks with either round or square holes.
