This chapter describes the ServerIron 4G Series.
Overview
The ServerIron 4G Series includes three stackable switches: ServerIron 4G, ServerIron 4G-SSL, and FIPs 140-2
level 2 certified ServerIron 4G-SSL-FIPS.
NOTE: ServerIron 4G-SSL-FIPS requires software release 10.2.01 or later.
Targeting small and mid-sized enterprise, eCommerce, and service provider sites, ServerIron 4G Series highlights
include:
•
ASIC-Based Application Processors
•
Choice of non-SSL and SSL-Integrated switches
•
Hardware SSL Acceleration (ServerIron 4G-SSL and 4G-SSL-FIPS)
•
FIPS 140-2 level 2 certification (ServerIron 4G-SSL-FIPS only)
NOTE: The fundamental difference between the SSL and non-SSL ServerIron switches is internal. There is an
embedded hardware ASIC for SSL acceleration in the ServerIron 4G-SSL and 4G-SSL-FIPS switches.
Figure 4.1 on page 4-1 shows the ServerIron 4G.

• A straight-through EIA/TIA DB-9 serial cable (F/F). You can separately order the serial cable from Foundry Networks. If you prefer to build your own cable, see the pinout information in “Attaching a PC or Terminal” on page 4-12. You can use the serial connection to perform basic configuration tasks such as assigning an IP address and network mask to the system. - Page 7 The minimum current draw for the system is one AC power supply. WARNING: Power supplies are hot swappable. However, Foundry Networks recommends that you disconnect the power supply from AC power before installing or removing the supply. The device can be running while a power supply is being installed or removed, but the power supply itself should not be connected to a power source.

Page 15: Configuring An Ip Address
NOTE: The 802.3ab standard (automatic MDI/MDIX detection) calls for automatic negotiation of the connection between two 1000Base-T ports. Therefore, a crossover cable may not be required; a straight-through cable may work as well.
