1
Ensure that the physical environment
that will host the device has the proper
cabling and ventilation.
“Preparing the installation site” on page
12
2
Optionally insert a second or redundant
power supply. If you need to install a
power supply, it may be easier to install
it before mounting the device, although
the power supplies are “hot
swappable”, and can be installed or
removed after the device is mounted
and powered-on.
CAUTION:
Remove the power cord from a
power supply before you install it in
or remove it from the device.
Otherwise, the power supply or the
device could be damaged as a
result. (The device can be running
while a power supply is being
installed or removed, but the power
supply itself should not be
connected to a power source.)
“Installing a redundant power supply”
on page 12
4
Install the device in an equipment rack. “Installing the device” on page 14
5
Once the device is physically installed,
plug the device into a nearby power
source that adheres to the regulatory
requirements outlined in this manual.
“Powering on the system” on page 19
6
Verify that the system LEDs are
registering the proper LED state after
power-on of the system.
“Verifying proper operation” on page 20
7
Attach a terminal or PC to the device.
This will enable you to configure the
device via the Command Line Interface
(CLI).
“Attaching a PC or terminal” on page
21
8
No default password is assigned to the
CLI. For additional access security,
assign a password.
“Assigning permanent passwords” on
page 23
9
Before attaching equipment to the
device, you need to configure an
interface IP address to the subnet on
which it will be located. Initial IP
address configuration is performed
using the CLI with a direct serial
connection. Subsequent IP address
configuration can be performed using
the Web management interface.
