Before You Begin
Check your packing slip to verify
that you have all the necessary
items.
On the network equipment, iden-
tify the 10/100/1000 Ethernet
ports.

Install the Appliance into the Network
a. Identify the relevant ports on the rear of the appliance.
b.
Connect the supplied network cables from the appliance to the identified network equipment
ports.

.
All copper RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces in the Silver Peak appliance support MDI/MDI-X and
auto-negotiation.

You’ve now completed the physical installation and are ready to register the product with Unity
Orchestrator.
Part 1 - Physical Installation
IMPORTANT - READ THIS FIRST:
You must install and register your Orchestrator
with the Silver Peak Cloud Portal
BEFORE
setting up an EdgeConnect appliance. After
Orchestrator is registered with your account name and key, you can proceed with
EdgeConnect installation.
If you don’t know or are unsure what role the Orchestrator plays, please contact your
network architect or deployment lead.
Static Assignment of IP Address
If an IP address is not dynamically assigned to
wan0
or
wan1
, then you
must configure it manually. To do this, access the appliance configuration
wizard through
lan0
.
Silver Peak assigns the
lan0
ethernet interface a default IP address of
169.254.0.1
and a subnet mask of
/16
(the same as
255.255.0.0
).
