Network connectors
The front panel has two LAN management Ethernet ports and two Ethernet
modules. See "Ethernet network configuration" on page 9 for a description of the
Ethernet numbering convention.
LAN management Ethernet ports: The MGT0 and MGT1 management Ethernet ports
provide connection to the LAN. These ports provide remote management access to
the appliance and should not be used as data ports. Use the interfaces in the
Ethernet modules for handling data traffic and for logging functions to and from
the DataPower services.
Best Practice: Use the MGT0 or MGT1 Ethernet interface for system-wide
