4-Port Broadcom Adapter

Connect the workstation to your facility’s network to access background rendering nodes, other
Lustre Stations, and the facility’s NAS or SAN centralized storage (if applicable). You connect
the ports on the Broadcom card as follows:

Connect Port 0 to the Autodesk control surface hub or the control surface itself.

Connect Port 1 to your house network.

Connect Port 2 to a SAN private network (optional).

For more details about configuring the Autodesk control surface, see

“Connecting the

Autodesk Control Surface”

on page 28.

Integrated Network Adapter

For Windows-based workstations, connect the integrated network port to the Slave Renderer.
For more details about configuring the Slave Renderer, see

“Connecting the Slave Renderer to

a Lustre Workstation”

For Linux-based workstations, connect the integrated network port to the Incinerator private
port. Refer to the Autodesk Incinerator 2009 Installation and User Guide for information on how
to connect your workstation to the Incinerator private network.
