Appendix B:Installation Checklist
You can print and refer to the following checklist to assist you with installing the appliance and
managed targets.
Number Installation Step
1
Rack mount or wall mount the appliance. See Rack and Wall Mounting on page 7
2
Connect the redundant power cables to P1 and P2 (100-240 volts).See Connecting the Hardware
on page 11
3
Connect at least GB1 to the management network. Connect GB2 to the same management
network if you intend to configure the two ports for failover. GB2 can be connected to different
networks if the appliance configured in normal mode. See Setting Up Your Network on page 22
4
Connect the tan-colored serial adapter (DB9-RJ45)to a straight CAT5/6 cable. Connect a
laptop/PC using this cable assembly to the Setup port on the front of the appliance. Using a
terminal emulation program, such as Putty, at 9600 baud access the appliance CLIto configure
IPand user settings.
Turn off DHCP:set /system/administration/networkManagement/networkInterfaces/eth0/
dhcp=false
Assign IP:set /system/administration/networkManagement/networkInterfaces/eth0/
addr=<192.168.0.5>
Assign mask:set /system/administration/networkManagement/networkInterfaces/eth0/
mask=255.255.255.0
Assign gateway:set /system/administration/networkManagement/networkInterfaces/eth0/
gateway=<192.168.0.1>
-or-
Connect a crash cart/LCDtray to the VGAand USBports on the front of the appliance to access
the VGAconsole and configure IPand user settings.
Assign IP/mask/gateway:From the sidebar of the web manager, click Administration-Network
Settings - eth0
Default credentials:username = admin; password = admin. See Web User Interface on page 27
5
Select a networking mode (normal, failover, bridge group). See Bridge Group Configuration on
page 34
6
Assign an IP address or addresses to the Eth/Bond0/Bridge group named interface. See Bridge
Group Configuration on page 34
7 Verify network connectivity by browsing to https://<appliance IP>
8
Consult the Network Settings-Routes page to ensure the IPnetwork assigned to the priv interface is
unique within your organization. If it isn't, access the Targets-Port Configuration-Network Settings
page and change the IPaddresses assigned to the virtual private interfaces to organizationally
unique ones. Be sure to create new DHCP dynamic ranges to match the virtual private interface IPs
you changed. SeeNetwork Settings on page 33
