2, Oracle Database Appliance X4-2, Oracle Database Appliance X5-2 or Oracle Database
Appliance X6 series. Refer to the preceding chapters in this document for information on
servicing those systems.
Each Oracle Database Appliance Version 1 server node supports two 10/100/1000Base-T
Gigabit Ethernet ports on the rear of the chassis. For port locations, see the Oracle Database
Appliance Owner's Guide.
The device naming for the Ethernet interfaces is reported differently by different interfaces
and operating systems. See the following table for the physical (BIOS) and logical (operating
system) naming conventions used for each interface.

Oracle Linux
The order in which the BIOS detects the Ethernet ports during boot time, and the corresponding
drivers that control those ports, are listed below:
