Talari APN Overview
Talari Networks is redefining WAN reliability and application performance with its family of
APN Appliances by aggregating and transforming affordable broadband links to deliver
business-class performance and reliability at consumer prices. Talari APN Appliances (APNAs)
are seamlessly added to existing networks to deliver more bandwidth, reduced WAN operating
expenses, and greater reliability than any existing single-provider WAN.
1-1

Using our patented Adaptive Private Network technology, Talari’s solution combines diverse,
abundant, affordable IP bandwidth sources, and provides reliable, resilient and high-quality
connectivity between sites, insuring application continuity. Talari APNAs deployed in the main
office and remote offices provide a network of Conduits between sites. Each Conduit is made
of multiple WAN links and data transmitted across the Conduits is controlled and optimized to
use network resources available across all WAN Links.

Installing the Talari Appliance
Rack Mounting
Prior to installing the device, adhere to the following installation guidelines:
•Ensure that there is adequate airflow in the rack. Restricted airflow can damage the
equipment.
•Leave at least 1U of vertical space between each device installed in the rack.
•The rack width and depth should allow for proper serviceability and cable management.
•Ensure the rack is properly secured to the floor or ceiling.
•Ensure the rack is properly grounded.
•Ensure the installer is properly grounded and wearing appropriate safety equipment.
•Always load the rack from the bottom up.
•Load the heaviest devices in the rack first.
•Make sure the rack is level and stable before pulling a device out of the rack.
•Do not move racks by yourself; at least two people are recommended to move a rack.
•Cables should be easily identifiable.
Please refer to the Oracle® Servers X7-2 and X7-2L Installation Guide for additional appliance
specifications and detailed rackmounting instructions: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E72435_01/
html/E72440/index.html.
LAN/WAN Connections
When connecting each Ethernet cable (LAN, WAN) to the appropriate connector on the D2000.
•Position the cables carefully, so that they do not put strain on the connectors.
•Organize cables in bundles such that cables do not intertwine.
•Inspect the cables to make sure that the routing and bend radii are satisfactory. Reposition
cables, if necessary.
