Introduction

This guide provides an overview of the Infoblox-4030 and Infoblox-4030-10GE caching accelerator appliances and explains how to install and
configure them. For information about which NIOS releases the Infoblox-4030 and Infoblox-4030-10GE appliances support, refer to the Read Me
First document and release notes for your product.

Product Overview

The Infoblox-4030 and Infoblox-4030-10GE are high performance network appliances for core network services, including DNS (Domain Name
System) caching. You can configure and manage the Infoblox-4030 or Infoblox-4030-10GE through an Infoblox GUI that works seamlessly in
Windows, Linux, and Mac environments using standard web browsers.
The Infoblox-4030 and Infoblox-4030-10GE appliances contain power supplies, fan modules, hard disk drives and network interfaces. They are
Class A and Class B (with limits) digital appliances per FCC regulations. For the appliances to be NEBS Level 3 compliant, ensure that you do not
install the optional front cover that ship with the appliance. For information about the front cover, see 

.

 

Hardware Components

Basic features of the Infoblox-4030 and Infoblox-4030-10GE include the following:

Support for all DNS caching, DNSSEC, Grid Management, and all administrative features for Infoblox DNS
Four (4) SFP or SFP+ Gigabit Ethernet interfaces
10-Gigabit Ethernet (Infoblox-4030-10GE only)
High Availability support

Optional DC power supplies

Note: There are two versions of the Infoblox-4030 appliance: Rev-1 and Rev-2. Both versions support the same NIOS features. They are different
in physical appearance and CPU speeds. This guide only contains information about the Infoblox-4030 Rev-2 appliance, referred to generically in
this Guide as the Infoblox-4030. For information about the Infoblox-4030 Rev-1 appliance, refer to the

.

030 Rev-1 Appliance
Identify your Infoblox-4030 version by looking at its physical appearance and the serial number; Rev-2 appliance serial numbers begin with a
4835 prefix and Rev-1 appliance serial numbers begin with a 40 prefix.

Infoblox supports the previous Infoblox-4030 platform version, Rev-1, only with field-replaceable units (FRUs) and warranty replacements. Current
Rev-2 platform FRUs, such as power supplies and fan units, are not compatible with Infoblox-4030 Rev-1 hardware and FRUs, and vice versa.
Ensure that you use the correct FRUs for your Infoblox-4030 appliance. For information about FRUs, see

Field Replaceable Units

Hardware Components

The Infoblox-4030 and Infoblox-4030-10GE are 2-U platforms that you install in a seismic equipment rack using mounting rails and materials that
ship with each appliance. For information about rack mounting, see
