Install the Appliance
The guide provides a system administrator with concise instructions for a base
deployment. The document covers common installation requirements and is not
intended to be comprehensive. Every network environment is different, and
some installations may require additional configuration.
Installation instructions first cover assumptions the guide takes into account for
a common deployment to help administrators plan for the skills and resources
they may need. Assumptions are followed by the network information
worksheet. The worksheet helps to gather necessary information that will aid in
the installation process. Preparation steps are followed by instructions to rack,
connect to the network, and power the appliance.
