A collection of rule sets, rules, conditions, and actions that are compared against network traffic to determine if an action should be taken on the traffic.
A collection of conditions and an action that are compared to network traffic. If the comparison of the rule to the network traffic results in a match, then the action is enforced. If multiple rules are configured in a rule set, each rule is ORed.
Individual network traffic conditions that can be configured in an ACL rule. Some examples of ACL conditions are source/destination addresses that match network traffic, and IPToS bits with a specific value. If multiple conditions are configured in a rule, the conditions are ANDed.
A single action that can be configured in an ACL rule. The action is the enforced result after network traffic is successfully matched against one or more ACL conditions.
High Availability vNIC - A pair of virtual Ethernet interfaces, that are both assigned to the same server profile, but terminated on different physical interfaces.
Host Channel Adapter - A hardware card, installed in a physical server, that provides high-speed connectivity and virtual interfaces, based on the InfiniBand interface.
A physical card that is installed in one of 15 slots in the chassis' card bay. The Fabric Interconnect supports the following types of I/O card: Ethernet, Fibre Channel, and Host Bus Adapter. The Ethernet and Host Bus Adapter modules provide access to Ethernet and Fibre Channel networks, respectively.
A single port on an Ethernet module, a Host Bus Adapter module, or one of the 24 InfiniBand ports on the Fabric Interconnect InfiniBand Fabric board.
A single slot in the Oracle Fabric Interconnect chassis. A slot can be populated with an I/O card, pre-provisioned for a specific I/O card, or not populated with a module.
An object-oriented representation of a resource managed in a device. This can be a physical or logical resource.
Configuration of automatic system behavior (such as, statistics collection, database cleanup, and so on.)
The Quality of Service (QoS) object allows the data traffic of individual applications to be managed. The performance of a particular application can be guaranteed by raising the priority of its dataflow, relative to the other applications.
One of the privilege levels that a user may be assigned (for example, “Operators” or “Administrators”) that affects what objects in the XgOS the user can add, delete, or modify.
One instance of a server I/O configuration that is assignable to a single physical server through an IB port.
An object that identifies a given system at the highest (“top”) level in the object model hierarchy.
An internal or external representation of a person. Users either exist locally or remotely through LDAP, Active Directory, or RADIUS. By default, an “admin” user is created locally.
Virtual Host Bus Adapter, which is a Fibre Channel storage connection, provided without a physical HBA.
