Connecting the Device to a Network
This section provides basic information on how to physically connect the
SSG 500-series device.
To connect the necessary cables as shown in Figure 12:
1. Connect an RJ-45 cable from the port labeled 0/0 (ethernet0/0 interface) to the
internal switch. The ethernet0/0 interface is prebound to the Trust security
zone.
2. Connect an RJ-45 cable from the port labeled 0/1 (ethernet0/1 interface) to the
DMZ switch. The ethernet0/1 interface is prebound to the DMZ security zone.
3. Connect an RJ-45 cable from the port labeled 0/2 (ethernet0/2 interface) to the
external switch or router. The ethernet0/2 interface is prebound to the Untrust
security zone. The device auto-senses the correct speed, duplex, and MDI/MDIX
settings.
4. Connect an RJ-45 cable from the Console port using the instructions provided
in “Using a Console Connection” on page 30 for management access.
NOTE: The PSU in the rear panel of the device may include a power switch. If such a
switch is included, make sure the switch is in the ON position.
CAUTION: If the device is connected to an AC power-source receptacle when you
press the power button to power off, the device remains in standby mode, and a
small amount (5 V and 3.3 V) of standby voltage is still available in the chassis.
