NOTE:
If the boot file of the firewall is stored in the CF card, before booting the firewall, make sure that the CF
card has been correctly installed. Otherwise, the firewall cannot be booted.
Connecting Ethernet cables
Connecting a copper Ethernet cable
The copper Ethernet ports of the HP A-F1000-E firewall support MDI/MDI-X auto-sensing. They are
connected to the network through category-5 or above twisted pairs that are equipped with RJ-45
connectors.
Follow these steps to connect a copper Ethernet cable:
Step1
Plug one end of an Ethernet twisted pair cable into the copper Ethernet port (RJ-45 port) to be connected
on the firewall.
Step2
Plug the other end of the cable into the RJ-45 port of the peer device.
Step3
After the firewall is powered on, check the status LED of the RJ-45 connector. If the LINK LED is solid green,
you can be sure that the link is connected. For more information about the LED status, see the chapter
“ Appendix B LEDs .”
Connecting an optical fiber
Before connecting the firewall to the network, you must install a transceiver module to the firewall, and
then insert the fiber connector to the transceiver module. The A-F1000-E Firewall supports LC connectors
only.
WARNING!
When connecting an optical fiber, note the following guidelines:
• Never bend or curve a fiber when connecting it. After a fiber is installed well, the bend radius must be
not less than 10 cm (3.94 in).
•
Keep the fiber end clean.
•
Make sure that the fiber connector matches the transceiver module.
• Before connecting a fiber, make sure that the optical power at the receiving end does not exceed the
upper threshold of the optical receive power of the transceiver module. Otherwise, the transceiver
module may be damaged. For the optical power of a transceiver module, see the chapter “ Appendix A
Technical specifications .”
Follow these steps to connect optical fibers:
Step1
Remove the dust plug of the SFP interface.
