Facebook user experience. An FNA cluster consists of a Top-of-Rack (ToR) switch and from two to twenty servers. The illustrations in this guide will show a typical 4-server cache deployment, so please consider these illustrations as an example and follow the instructions taking into account the number of servers actually deployed.
Uplink capacity is selected for every order, either with 10G or 100G ports. Optical transceivers will be sent according to the port type selected. Facebook provides transceivers only for the FNA, while optics for the ISP devices must be provided by the ISP. For 10g uplink, by default FB will send as many SFP+ as servers in the order.

LC-LC, LC-SC, (Lucent Connector – Subscriber Connector), etc. Optics for the ISP devices must be provided by the ISP. The FNA accepts 10G SR and LR, and 100G SR4 and LR4 optical transceivers. Facebook provides the most optimal optical transceiver type, corresponding to the type you currently use to connect your routers.
For initial deployment (Cluster 1), 9RU (nine rack unit) is required. For additional servers, consider 2RU additional per server. Where n = 1 for each server deployed. Table 3: Pre-installation Checklist Quick Start Guide: Installing or Upgrading an FNA Cache...
Connect C13-C14 power cables from each server to the Power Distribution Units (PDUs). Figure 1.1 illustrates AC power supplies. For DC power installations, please consult an electrician.

IMPORTANT: We won’t connect the switch to power at this stage, as the switch will immediately turn on as soon it receives power, and we don’t want that for now. We will do this in a later stage. Quick Start Guide: Installing or Upgrading an FNA Cache...
32. Repeat for every server as illustrated in Figure 2.2. Table 4 provides a port map for a 4-servers cache deployment, plus an example of a 4 to 6-servers upgrade. Figure 2.2: Switch <> Server connectivity Quick Start Guide: Installing or Upgrading an FNA Cache | 10...
4. Install QSFP-SFP adapters and SFP+ optical transceivers into ports 1, 2, 3 and 4 in FNA switch as shown in Figure 4.1. Please note : Full switch port assignment is provided in Figure 4.1 for clusters over four servers.
Port LEDs display green for up, yellow for software disabled and flashing yellow for failed diagnostics (refer to Figure 5.2). Figure 5.1 Figure 5.2 Quick Start Guide: Installing or Upgrading an FNA Cache | 12...
7. Check Optical Light Levels a. Check the optical light levels to ensure the cluster has adequate signal stretch. Light levels need to be between -2 dB and -7 dB. Quick Start Guide: Installing or Upgrading an FNA Cache | 13...
• For all other router software, set the MTU to 1500. The FNA cluster must have internet connectivity BEFORE BGP peering can be established. The BGP peering session does not need to be routed before the FNA has internet connectivity.
