INSTALLING THE HARDWARE

Locating the SSL-IA

Place the SSL-IA on a level surface in an area with access to your

network cabling and close enough to the configuring computer to

allow serial access. Allow at least an inch of space around the

SSL-IA for adequate ventilation.

Locating the SSL-R

If you are placing the SSL-R in a standard rack, use the included screws

to attach the appliance securely. If you are placing the SSL-R on a shelf,

you may remove the rack-mounting “ears”. Allow at least an inch of

space around the SSL-R sides for adequate ventilation.

Connecting the SSL Appliance to Ethernet

1. Use Category 5 UTP cables with RJ-45 connectors. SonicWALL

SSL appliance Ethernet interfaces are configured as NIC ports.

— Use a

straight-through

cable to connect the SSL appli-

ance to a hub or switch.

— Use a

crossover

cable to connect the SSL appliance to a

NIC.

2. The connection to the Internet must use the “Network” port;

the connection to the server(s) must use the “Server” port.

Push the connector into the jack until it clicks into place.

3. Check the Link LEDs on the equipment. The green Link (LK)

LED should be solidly lit on the networking equipment. The

green Receive (RX) and amber Transmit (TX) LEDs on the SSL

appliance will flash as packets travel to and from the SSL

appliance. If the Link LED does not light, see the Appendix

B - Troubleshooting in the User Guide for suggestions.

4. To disconnect a cable, press the small tab on the connector

and gently pull the connector from the jack. If the connector

does not disengage, press the tab down more firmly and pull

again.

Note: You must connect the cables to the SSL appliance so client

requests (inbound) and server traffic (outbound) move through dif-

ferent ports. Inbound traffic uses the “Network” port. Outbound

traffic uses the “Server” port. The configuration computer must be

connected via the “Server” port. This is discussed further in the

SSL-IA/SSL-R User Guide
