2 — Connect Cables
It is recommended that you plug in cables, verify LEDs, and
configure and license the appliance before mounting it in a
rack. Make sure the appliance is on a flat, level surface
when performing the initial configuration. If you would rather
mount the appliance before performing configuration tasks,
skip to
Section 6 — Mount the Appliance
.
The following procedure describes a typical deployment for
a single SA-S500-10-CM appliance capturing from a single
SPAN/TAP switch (as shown in the above illustration). For
information on deployments with other SA-S500 appliances,
or configurations with multiple appliances or multiple SPAN/
TAP switches, see the
Security Analytics
documentation,
available at:
NOTE:
Network cables are not included with the appliance.
Make sure to use only straight-through Ethernet cables.
Category 5E cables or better are recommended for
1000Base-T operation. Category 6A cables are
recommended for 10GBase-T operation.
To deploy the appliance and connect cables:
1. Remove the End User License Agreement (EULA) sticker
from the anti-static bag included with the appliance. By
removing the sticker and installing the product, you are
agreeing to the terms and conditions of the EULA.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable to the appliance’s
LAN 1:0
port and connect the other end to the SPAN or TAP
switch. The appliance auto-negotiates 100/1000/
10GBase-T speed and duplex settings.
3. Connect an Ethernet cable to the appliance’s
MGMT 0:0
port and connect the other end of the cable to the
management network switch.
4. Connect the included null-modem cable to the appliance’s
DB9 serial
port and connect the other end to a serial
terminal or workstation with terminal emulation software.
The serial connection is used to perform the appliance’s
initial configuration.
5. Attach the lug-equipped end of the included grounding
wire (10 AWG) to both grounding studs on the appliance,
securing it with the star washers and M5 nuts. Attach the
other end of the grounding wire to a proper earth-ground.
6. Connect the included AC power cords to the appliance’s
power inlets and connect the other ends of the power
cords to a 120V or 200V power source.
