Before using this chapter, refer to "Opening a PIX Firewall Chassis," for instructions on how to open the case for each model of PIX Firewall. You can use the information in this chapter to install an interface card, such as for Ethernet, Token Ring, or FDDI, or a Private Link VPN card.
For DC models:
 | Warning Before performing any of the following procedures, ensure that power is removed from the DC circuit. To ensure that all power is OFF, locate the circuit breaker on the panel board that services the DC circuit, switch the circuit breaker to the OFF position, and tape the switch handle of the circuit breaker in the OFF position. |
For both AC and DC models:
| Warning Before working on a system that has an On/Off switch, turn OFF the power and unplug the power cord. |
This chapter includes the following sections:
The information in this section refers to both the AC and DC models of the PIX 515.
To install a circuit board in a PIX 515:
Step 1 Locate the grounding strap from the accessory kit and attach it to bare metal inside the PIX 515 case as shown in Figure 7-1.
Step 2 Remove the screws from the rear assembly on the left and put the assembly aside.
Step 3 Insert a board through the cage opening and into the slot as shown in Figure 7-2.
Step 4 Attach the back cover plate making sure that the connecting flange on the board goes through the slot on the back cover plate as shown in Figure 7-3.
Step 5 Attach the screw to hold the board's connecting flange to the cover plate, and the screws to attach the cover plate to the PIX 515 unit.
Step 6 Reattach the top cover.
To install a circuit board in a PIX 520 and earlier model:
Step 1 Locate the wrist grounding strap that accompanied the memory strip and connect one end to the PIX Firewall chassis, as shown in Figure 7-4, and securely attach the other to your wrist so it contacts your bare skin.
Step 2 Insert the new board, as shown in Figure 7-5, and secure it using the screw provided with the board.
Step 3 Install the interface boards so that the leftmost board is the outside interface, as shown in Figure 7-6, the next board to the left is the inside interface, and any other interfaces to the left (away from the power supply) of the inside interface. If you have version 4.4 and a four-port Ethernet board, refer to the section, "PIX Firewall with a Four-port Interface Card" in "Installing a PIX Firewall."
Step 4 If you are installing a Private Link VPN board, insert the board in any remaining PCI slot after you install all required interface boards. Refer to Figure 7-7 for how a PCI slot appears compares to an ISA slot.
Step 5 If you are installing the PIX Firewall Flash memory upgrade, place the new circuit board in the same slot from which you remove the existing circuit board.
Step 6 If you are installing an AccessPro router, the board requires two contiguous ISA slots.
Step 7 If you are installing a 4-port card, note that the board will appear to overlap the slot connector on the motherboard. Figure 7-8 illustrates how this appears.
After inserting a FDDI card into a PIX Firewall unit, connect the cable as shown in Figure 7-9:
