Note The fan is not blocked by the device below if you surface mount the chassis on top of each other, the air is sucked in from the back and side vents and exhausted out with the help of the fan through the bottom of the chassis and then directed out the side of the channel by the channel feature on the bottom of the chassis.
You must remove the chassis cover to install or remove a circuit board. Note The fan is not blocked by the device below if you mount the chassis on top of each other, the air is sucked in from the back and side vents and exhausted out with the help of the fan through the bottom of the chassis and then directed out the side of the channel by the channel feature on the bottom of the chassis.
Step 1 Attach the bracket to the chassis using the supplied screws. You can attach the brackets to the holes near the front of the chassis. Step 2 Attach the chassis to the equipment rack. To mount the chassis vertically, attach the brackets to the side of the unit and mount the unit vertically as shown in Figure Step 1 Connect the cable as shown in Figure so that you have either a DB-9 or DB connector on one end as required by the serial port for your computer, and the other end is the RJ connector.
Note Use the Console port to connect to a computer to enter configuration commands. Locate the serial cable from the accessory kit. The serial cable assembly consists of a null modem cable with RJ connectors, and one DB-9 connector and a DB connector. Note If your unit has a four-port Ethernet circuit board already installed, refer to Figure If it has one or two single-port Ethernet circuit boards, refer to Figure Step 3 Connect the inside, outside, or perimeter network cables to the interface ports.
Starting from the top left the connectors are Ethernet 2, Ethernet 3, Ethernet 4, and Ethernet 5. The maximum number of allowed interfaces is 6. Note Do not add a single-port circuit board in the extra slot below the four-port circuit board. Note As shown in Figure , if your unit has one or two single-port Ethernet circuit boards installed in the auxiliary assembly on the left of the unit at the rear, the circuit boards are numbered top to bottom so that the top circuit board is Ethernet 2 and the bottom circuit board is Ethernet 3.
If you have a second PIX security appliance to use as a failover unit, install the failover feature and cable as described in the "Installing Failover" section. Note Do not power on the failover units until the active unit has been configured. Even though it appears possible to add or remove circuit boards from the back panel, removing the chassis cover greatly simplifies the process.
Note If, for any reason, you choose to downgrade to any software version, note that you must use the clear flashfs command before doing so. A new section is added to Flash memory that must be cleared before downgrading. For information on upgrading feature licenses or downloading the latest software versions, refer to the the configuration guide online at :.
While the VAC continues to be supported in Version 6. Performance is degraded if this recommendation is not followed. Step 1 Power off both the primary and secondary units. Note Both PIX security appliances must have the same model number, have at least as much RAM, have the same Flash memory size, and be running the same software version. Step 2 Locate the failover cable shown in Figure The cable is labeled "Primary" on one end and "Secondary" on the other.
Both units must be identical. Step 3 Connect the Primary end of the failover cable to the first PIX security appliance; that is, the one you have already configured.
Step 4 Connect the Secondary end of the failover cable to the standby unit. Step 5 Connect a power cord to the power connector on the rear panel of each unit, and the other end of each power cord to preferably separate power outlets. Step 6 If you are using Stateful Failover, use one of the following types of connections, that is appropriate for your system, between the dedicated interfaces on the PIX security appliance:.
Note All enabled interfaces must be connected between the active and standby units. Only configure the active unit. See Figure Step 7 Use the power switch at the back of the units to power on the primary unit and then power on the standby unit. Within a few seconds, the active unit automatically downloads its configuration to the standby unit. LAN-based failover supports failover between two units connected over a dedicated Ethernet interface.
LAN-based failover eliminates the need for a special failover cable and overcomes the distance limitations imposed by the failover cable. Note Both chassis must be the same model number, have the same amount of RAM, Flash memory, number and type of interfaces, and be running the same software version. Step 1 Disconnect both PIX security appliances, so that there is no traffic flow between them.
If the failover cable is connected to the PIX security appliance, disconnect it. Step 3 Power off both units. You cannot use a crossover Ethernet cable to connect the two PIX security appliances. Step 5 If you are using Stateful Failover, use one of the following types of connections, that is appropriate for your system, between the dedicated interfaces on the PIX security appliance:. Step 6 Power the primary unit on first, then power on the secondary unit. This section includes the following topics:.
Note Removing the chassis cover does not affect your Cisco warranty. Upgrading the PIX security appliance does not require any special tools and does not create any radio frequency leaks. Step 2 Unplug the power cord from the power outlet.
Once the upgrade is complete, you can safely reconnect the power cord. Step 4 With the front of the unit facing you, push the chassis cover back by about one inch as shown in Figure Step 5 Pull the chassis cover up as shown in Figure Put the chassis cover in a safe place. Step 1 Place the chassis on a secure surface with the front panel facing you. Step 2 Hold the chassis cover so the tabs at the rear of the chassis cover are aligned with the chassis bottom.
Step 3 Lower the front of the chassis cover onto the chassis, making sure that the chassis cover side tabs fit under the chassis side panels. Step 4 Slide the chassis cover toward the front, making sure that the chassis cover tabs fit under the chassis back panel, and the back panel tabs fit under the chassis cover.
Step 5 Fasten the chassis cover with the screws you set aside earlier. Step 6 Reinstall the chassis on a rack, wall, desktop, or table. Step 7 Reinstall network interface cables. The PIX security appliance has a lithium battery on its main circuit board. This battery has an operating life of about ten years.
When the battery loses its charge, the PIX security appliance cannot function. Contact Cisco TAC to replace the battery.
Note Do not attempt to replace this battery yourself. Warning Danger of explosion exists if the lithium battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions.
