E1000 Hardware Options
7.1 introduces three hardware variations for the E1000 in the form of optional expansion cards. Customers may order either four additional fail-to-wire Gigabit Ethernet ports or two 10 Gigabit Ethernet fiber ports. To determine which expansion card (if any) is installed on the appliance, check the number of Ethernet interfaces under Manage Appliance > Local Network Settings:

Fail to Wire Copper (4 Port) Expansion Card:
Note:
The configuration editor will not detect which expansion card (if any) is installed on an E1000, and will offer port 1 – 12 for all E1000s. Before beginning configuration for an E1000, please verify the physical ports on the appliance. For an E1000 with no expansion card, only configure ports 1 – 8. For an E1000 with the 10G fiber expansion card, only configure ports 1 – 10; ports 9 and 10 should not be configured for FTW. For an E1000 with the FTW expansion card, all 12 ports may be configured.If a configuration that does not match the available hardware is applied to an E1000, the Talari service will be disabled. Once a mismatched configuration has been applied to an E1000, a corrected package must be applied through Local Change Management before the service will start. Alternately, the appliance may be factory defaulted and a corrected configuration applied using the Easy 1st Install process. The Talari service will be disabled until a corrected package is applied.
For more information about the E1000, available hardware options, and special configuration considerations, please see the E1000 Installation Guide and the E1000 Hardware Guide.
