    Electrostatic discharge can damage electrical components. SmartNA-X components are wrapped in antistatic bags to prevent this damage. Before handling SmartNA-X components, attach an antistatic wrist strap to a grounded metal surface to prevent electrostatic discharge from damaging your hardware. If you do not have a wrist strap, just prior to removing the product from ESD packaging and installing or replacing hardware, touch an unpainted metal surface for a minimum of 5 seconds.

  • Page 10: Chapter 1: Introduction

    The SmartNA-X system is designed to work as an enterprise solution custom fit for any data centre, no matter the size. It has advanced packet filtering capabilities and flexible port maps and is able to filter 10G traffic to 1G tools, or aggregate 1G links to a 10G tool.

SmartNA-X chassis The SmartNA-X chassis supports four independently operating, hot-swappable TAP modules, and provides two 10G bps ports at the rear. Each module has four ports that operate in pairs for connecting to a live network and network monitoring tools.

    SmartNA-X commands, either remotely or direct from a PC connected serially. In addition to the web and CLI interfaces, SmartNA-X contains an SNMP agent that allows the system to be managed from SNMP stations, and SNMP hosts to receive notifications when alerts requiring administrator assistance occur.

  • Page 14: Tap On Individual Servers

    The following figure shows a configuration with three servers and three TAPs, one for each server. Each TAP is connected to the AB ports of a SmartNA-X module (one module per server). If necessary, the resulting traffic streams can be aggregated before sending to a network tool. A fully populated SmartNA-X device with four modules installed allows up to four servers to be tapped (or more if C&D ports are used in TAP/failsafe mode).

    How to set up a TAP You set up a TAP by connecting the SmartNA-X to your LAN and directing the received traffic to your network monitoring tools for capture or analysis. Once the TAP has been installed its presence is transparent to traffic flowing along that segment.

    Please contact Network Critical Support (support@networkcritical.com) if any item is missing from the package. Installing the chassis To prevent unregulated access, the SmartNA-X chassis should be installed in a secure server rack with access to authorized personnel only. Caution: Static electricity can damage sensitive electronic components. To discharge static, fit an antistatic wrist- strap or touch a bare metal surface before handling SmartNA-X components.

    Cabling for administrative connections SmartNA-X provides dual administration ports for networked or serial access to the management interfaces. In most cases, users will connect to the system remotely over a network. When first setting up, you may need to use the CONSOLE in order to configure the network interface address.

    For these reasons, it is important that the time configured on the all devices on the network be accurate. Note: The SmartNA-X device supports Network Time Protocol (NTP) and when enabled, the device dynamically synchronizes the device time with the NTP server time. The device operates only as an NTP client, and cannot provide time services to other devices.

    Accounting gives the ability to track usage, such as user access, the ability to log the data gathered to a database, and the ability to produce reports on the data gathered. Although the SmartNA-X does not locally support accounting, you can enable an AAA accounting server running RADIUS or TACACS+ and have accounting information logged by the AAA server.

  • Page 42: Chapter 4: Configuring Ports

    Configuring Ports The SmartNA-X chassis can house up to four independently operating modules. Each module contains four ports (A–D), which operate in pairs (AB and CD). At the rear of the chassis are two 10G ports (R0 and R1). All ports support full-rate data throughput at the advertised rate, and can be mapped to any other port regardless of any differing physical properties.
  • Page 43 The SmartNA-X TAP modules have a feature called "fast-failsafe" that minimises the interruption to traffic when power is restored, by reducing the probability of an auto-negotiation process. To take advantage of this feature, use LFP (not LMP), and it is advisable to set both sides to advertise only 1G full-duplex, and to set both sides' MDI settings to non- auto (that is, MDI or MDI-X).

  • Page 44: Configuring Port Settings

    44 | Configuring Ports | SmartNA-X 1G/10G Modular The recommended advice on avoiding duplex mismatches is to: • Enable auto-negotiation on both ports, or • Turn off auto-negotiation and use the same fixed duplex setting on both ports. Configuring port settings Configure port settings to specify description and usage information, to secure ports by locking them or enabling auto- lock, and to specify communication options and a TAP failsafe mode when working with copper ports.
  • Page 45 SmartNA-X 1G/10G Modular | Configuring Ports | 45 Figure 35: Port configuration dialog (RJ/copper port) Configuring port traffic thresholds Traffic thresholds can be set on each port to warn when traffic levels are reaching the port's maximum carrying capacity (this option is not available for ports in V-Line modules). Should the traffic level exceed the high threshold level, an SNMP system notification will be sent to all configured SNMP hosts.

  • Page 57: Chapter 7: Load Balancing

    Load-balancing scalability SmartNA-X supports up to eight independent load balancing groups. The packet headers used to balance each group may be different, but there is a limit of three headers per group. There is no fixed limit on how many ingress ports may be aggregated to feed into a group, and there is no fixed limit on how many egress ports a group’s traffic may be shared among.

  • Page 58: Load Balancing - Best Practices And Limitations

    Egress ports for load balanced groups may still be used as destinations for the normal mapping and filtering functions of SmartNA-X systems. For example, if tools are monitoring a protocol that has separate control and data channels, it is possible to load balance the data channel traffic across a set of tool ports, but still to replicate all control channel data to all of those tool ports at the same time.

    Connecting to the IPv6 link local address In addition to the IPv4 address, each SmartNA-X device has a unique IPv6 link local address. To discover the IPv6 link local address of your network interface, ping the network's IPv6 link-local address (ff02::1) and look for hex address sequence 1d:ffff:fe.

    In most deployments you can configure copper ports to use auto-negotiation (Auto-neg on), as this will allow the link partner ports to automatically negotiate the optimum communication settings themselves. On network critical links, you may prefer to specify fixed port settings, in which case the following settings are recommended for the two link partner ports: •...
