Figure 2-24 on page 23 shows the NetScaler 9000 system NetScaler 9800-T
copper unit.
To install and connect the NetScaler 9000 system into your network:
1. Place the NetScaler 9000 system into the rack.
2. Attach the NetScaler 9000 system to the rack by securing the screws
provided, into the holes on each side of the unit’s front.
3. Connect the Ethernet cables.
You must provide these cables (copper or fiber ones depending on the
NetScaler 9000 system used). These are connected from the Ethernet
ports on the front of the NetScaler 9000 system to the Ethernet ports on
the devices on your network.
a. Connect the end of an Ethernet cable to one of the ports labeled 1/1,
1/2, 1/3 or 1/4 on the front of the NetScaler 9000 system (see
Figure 2-23 for port locations), and then connect the other end to the
port on the switch. It is not recommended to use the port 0/1 until you
have other choices.
b. Connect the end of another cable to any of the available ports labeled
1/1, 1/2, 1/3 or 1/4 on the front of the NetScaler 9000 system
(see Figure 2-23 for port locations), and then connect the other end to
the port on the switch.
