What is that thing?

Forgive my ignorance, i'll use the "new guy" excuse. What is the red cylinder attached on or near the big diesel engines? Looks like a fire extinguisher. I see many have them missing, just empty brackets. What is it plumbed to? Thanks!

Probably an ether start system.

They are readily available at truck parts places.
