Before You Begin
Check your packing slip to verify
that you have all the necessary
items.
If installing an EC-M-P, first read,
Small Form-Factor Pluggable
(SFP) Module Installation Guide.
If your EdgeConnect model
requires it, ensure that you
have the associated rack mount
instructions.
Make sure you have a standard
Phillips screwdriver.
Supply circuits should be protect-
ed by a minimum 15A, maximum
20A circuit breaker.
On the network equipment, iden-
tify the 10/100/1000 Ethernet
ports and/or the 1Gbps/10Gbps
fiber ports.
1Rack Mount the Appliance
Based on your model, refer to the separate instructions for rack
mount, desk mount, or wall mount.
2Install the Appliance into the Network
a. Identify the relevant ports on the rear of the appliance.
b. Connect network cables from the appliance to the identified
network equipment ports.
c. DO NOT connect the power cables yet.
All copper RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces in the Silver Peak
appliance support MDI/MDI-X and auto-negotiation.
The fiber interfaces support:
• LC connectors
• multi-mode 50fiber / 62.5fiber
• single-mode 9fiber (EC-M-P only)
3Connect Power Cords
Depending on the model, your appliance may have a single
power supply, or redundant power supplies.
a. Connect each power cable to the Silver Peak appliance and
to your local power source.
b. For redundancy, plug in all power cords, preferably to
different power sources.
4Turn the Power On
Some appliances power up as soon as they’re plugged in, oth-
ers don’t. If the power is off, turn it on. If you don’t plug in all
the power cords, an audible alarm sounds until you do.
a. Verify that each power supply’s LED illuminates green.
b. On the front panel, verify that the Power LED illuminates
green or blue.
5Optionally, connect the management ports
It is not necessary, however, if you want to create local, physical
access to the management ports, you can do so as follows:
Silver Peak assigns the MGMT1 ethernet interface a default IP
address of 169.254.0.1 and a subnet mask of /16 (the same as
255.255.0.0).
Both RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces (MGMT0 and MGMT1)
support MDI/MDI-X and auto-negotiation.
a. Identify the appliance’s MGMT0 and MGMT1 interfaces.
b. Using an RJ-45 cable, connect the appliance’s MGMT0
interface to the network equipment interface.
c. Using another RJ-45 cable, connect the appliance’s MGMT1
interface to your PC.
You’ve now completed the physical installation and are ready to
register the product with Unity Orchestrator.
Part 1 - Physical Installation
IMPORTANT - READ THIS FIRST: You must install and
register your Orchestrator with the Silver Peak Cloud
Portal BEFORE setting up an EdgeConnect appliance.
After Orchestrator is registered with your account
name and key, you can proceed with EdgeConnect
installation.
If you don’t know or are unsure what role the
Orchestrator plays, please contact your network
architect or deployment lead.

1Approve the Discovered Appliance
After you power on the EdgeConnect appliance, it automatically registers its serial number with
the Silver Peak Cloud Portal. The portal knows how to associate a serial number with a particular
account.
a. Go to the Orchestrator.
b. In the header, click the blinking box named Appliances Discovered.
The Discovered Appliances page opens, listing the most recently discovered appliances first.
c. After verifying that the appliance is yours, click Approve.
d. Select the group and click Apply.
The Appliance Manager Configuration Wizard opens.
2Complete the Appliance Manager Configuration Wizard
a. If you’ve also purchased EdgeConnect Boost or EdgeConnect Plus, and you want to apply it to
this appliance, select the relevant check box(es) on the Deployment Profile page.
b. At the end, click Apply. It may take up to two minutes to register the appliance.
c. Complete the remaining wizard screens.
• On the Deployment page’s default configuration, the WAN–side interfaces use DHCP IP ad-
dresses, unless you manually enter static IP addresses.
Before You Begin
Make sure that Orchestrator is
installed and registered.
Verify that you’ve received the
email containing your Account
Name and Account Key.
Part 2 - Registration
IMPORTANT - READ THIS FIRST: You must install and register your Orchestrator with
the Silver Peak Cloud Portal BEFORE setting up an EdgeConnect appliance. After
Orchestrator is registered with your account name and key, you can proceed with
EdgeConnect installation.
If you don’t know or are unsure what role the Orchestrator plays, please contact your
network architect or deployment lead.
