In this guide, we provide a simple, three-step path, to quickly get you up and running with your new JSA7800. We’ve sbmrѴbC;7 and shortened the bns|-ѴѴ-ঞon and conC]†r-ঞon steps, and included how-to videos. You’ll learn how to install an AC-powered JSA7800 in a rack, power it up, and conC]†r; basic s;মn]sĺ

Meet the JSA7800 Appliance

The JSA7800 provides highly–scalable security bn=orm-ঞon and event management (SIEM) for large, globally distributed or]-nbz-ঞonsĺ It consolidates security events collected from the thousands of network devices, endpoints, and -rrѴbc- ঞons distributed throughout your network. Using big data analysis, the JSA7800 7bsঞѴѴs that bn=orm-ঞon into an -cঞon-bѴ; list of o@;ns;sķ enabling you to shutdown malicious -cঞvbঞ;s before they cause damage.

The JSA7800 is a 128-GB, 2-U rack mountable appliance with two 10-Gigabit SFP+ interfaces, four 1-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, four USB 2.0 ports, and a DB-9 COM port. It comes preinstalled with hot-swappable dual-AC power supplies and 16 hot-swappable hard drives that support RAID. rঞon-ѴѴyķ you can order a DC- powered JSA7800. See the JSA7800 Hardware Guide for bns|r†cঞons on how to install a DC-powered JSA7800.

In this guide, we show you how to install the JSA7800 using =ron|Ŋ-n7Ŋr;-rŊmo†nঞn] Y†s_ to a rack.

Install the JSA7800 in the Rack

Review the General Safety Guidelines and Warnings.
Place the shipping container on a Y-| surface and carefully remove the hardware components.
The chassis package includes a pair of rack rail assemblies and mo†nঞn] screws required to install the chassis in a rack. Each rail assembly has an inner, a middle, and an outer rail.
Callout| Component
---|---
1| Inner rail
2| Locking tab
3| Middle rail
4| Outer rail
5| Locking tab
Install the inner rail extensions.
a. Pull the inner rail out of the outer rail †nঞѴ it is fully extended as illustrated. Press the locking tab down to release the inner rail.

b. Place the inner rails against the sides of the chassis, aligning the chassis hooks with the holes in the inner rails.
c. Slide the inner rail toward the front of the chassis †nঞѴ the inner rail clicks into the locked rosbঞonĺ
d. Secure the inner rails to the chassis with the screws provided.

NOTE: Each inner rail of the JSA7800 has a locking tab. The locking tabs secure the chassis when it’s either installed or completely extended from the rack

Install the outer rails:
a. Press the locking tabs upward at the rear of the middle rails, and slide the middle rails into the outer rails.
b. Insert the front hooks of the outer rails into the front slots of the rack

c. Secure the front of the outer rails to the rack using the two M5 screws.
d. Extend the outer rails, and adjust the length to C| within the rack posts.
e. Insert the rear hooks of the outer rails into the rear slots of the rack.

f. Secure the rear of the outer rails to the rack with the M5 screws.

Slide the middle rails away from the rear of the outer rails.
Posbঞon the ball-bearing s_†‚Ѵ; at the front of the middle rails.
Align the chassis inner rails with the ball-bearing s_†‚Ѵ;ĺ
With even pressure on both sides, slide the chassis inner rails into the middle rails †nঞѴ the locking tab on the inner rail clicks into the front of the middle rail, locking the chassis into the fully extended rosbঞonĺ
Press the locking tabs on both sides simultaneously, and slide the chassis into the rear of the rack.
Secure the chassis handles to the four-post rack with the mo†nঞn] screws.

Power On

Now you’re ready to connect the JSA7800 to a dedicated AC power source. The switch comes with the AC power cord for your geographic Ѵoc-ঞonĺ

Here’s how to connect the JSA7800 to AC power:

Before conn;cঞn] the appliance to the power supply, -‚-c_ an ESD strap to an ESD point and place the other end of the strap around your bare wrist.
Plug each AC power cord into the power sockets on the rear panel.
Plug the other end of each power cord into a wall socket.
Press the Power b†‚on on the front panel.
Familiarize yourself with the LEDs:

LED	State
Power	Solid green— Indicates that the appliance is receiving power.
Hard drive	Unused
LAN

LAN1— Indicates eno1 interface activity when blinking.
LAN2— Indicates eno2 interface activity when blinking.

Information|
