Provides management access to the chassis using a
serial console cable connected to the Console port
or an RJ-45 cable connected to the management

various chassis components. The SMC also stores PAN-

IMPORTANT:
The SMC is required to operate the chassis
and on a PA-7050 firewall, it must be installed in slot 4.
The SMC-B is shipped with four copper 1G
transceivers for use in the MGT-A, MGT-B,
HA1-A, and HA1-B ports. You can use these
or replace them with a transceiver of your
choice.
