INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
A Firewall is a central device in your network, therefore do not neglect it – install it in the best way possible,
under the best conditions.
NOTE
Instructions on how to connect products are also given in the Poster Quick Installation Guide provided
with the Firewall.
Conditions of use
The Stormshield Network Firewall has been designed to run continuously, in an office or in a server room.
If you wish to install your appliance in an office, choose a flat and uncluttered surface. Add the non-slip rubber
feet to SN500, SN700, SN900 and SN910 models: stick a non-slip rubber foot to the underside of the
appliance, close to each corner about 2 cm from the edges. This will ensure the stability of the Firewall and
protect it from scratches.
WARNING
The Firewall has to be installed in compliance with the state of the art corresponding to the practical
terms of secure installation, namely: in a protected office or other premises with limited access. In
order to guarantee the integrity of the product and to avoid compromising the security of your
installation, all unauthorized access to the Firewall has to be avoided.
NOTE
Ensure that the cables do not obstruct passageways to prevent them from being pulled out or the
product from falling.
Your Stormshield Firewall is intended for indoor use (office environment or other IT environment), away from
areas that may receive rainfall, floods or excessive humidity. It must be installed away from sources of
shocks, vibrations, and dust, in an environment where the temperature conforms to the product's
specifications. The ideal room temperature is around 25°C.

overheating.
