Ports

Ports are used to connect the appliance to external devices. NetScaler appliances support RS232 serial ports, 10/100/1000Base-T copper Ethernet ports, 1-gigabit copper and fiber 1G SFP ports, and 10-gigabit fiber SFP+ and XFP ports. All NetScaler appliances have a combination of some or all of these ports. For details on the type and number of ports available on your appliance, see the section describing that platform.
