For adapter specifications, see
Your appliance supports one optional 4-port Ethernet inline network adapter. The
inline network adapter is a full-height, three-quarter-length PCI-X network
interface card that contains four independent Gigabit Ethernet ports. (See
Figure 1-11.)
Figure 1-11 Inline Network Adapter
The Cisco WAE inline network adapter provides inline traffic interception
capability for your appliance. When your appliance is configured for inline
interception mode, you can set attributes to control which interfaces are to be used
over which VLANs. By default, the adapter operates on all inline-capable
interfaces and VLANs. You can configure the inline redirection feature using the
WAAS 4.0.7 CLI or the WAAS 4.0.7 Central Manager GUI.
The WAAS software defines two new interface types: A group interface that
represents an inline pair grouping and a port interface that represents the
individual port. These interfaces are referred to as inlineGroup and inlinePort,
respectively.
