based on your desired boot mode prior to powering on
the firewall for the first time.
STEP 1 |
Remove the screw and star washer from the ground point on the back of the firewall.
STEP 2 |
Crimp a 14AWG ground cable to a ring lug (cable and lug not included), place the ring lug over
the screw and star washer, then replace the screw to attach the cable to the firewall. Torque
the screw to 25 in-lbs and then connect the other end of the cable to earth ground.
STEP 3 |
Connect the DC connector from the power adapter into the PWR 1 port on the firewall and
tighten the connector nut to secure the cable to the firewall.
Ensure the power adapter itself is appropriately positioned (see
Install the PA-400 Series Firewall
).
STEP 4 |
Plug the AC connector from the power adapter into your AC power source. After power is
connected, the firewall powers on as indicated by the green power LED next to the PWR 1
port. The front PWR LED shows green when a functioning power adapter is connected.
STEP 5 |
(Optional)
Connect the DC connector from a second power adapter (purchased separately) into
the PWR 2 port and plug the AC connector into an AC power source.
Connect the second PA-400 Series firewall power adapter through a different circuit
breaker to provide power redundancy and to allow for electrical circuit maintenance.
Before powering on the firewall, ensure that you have connected your Ethernet cables in
accordance to the mode you wish to boot the firewall in (standard mode or Zero Touch
Provisioning mode) as specified in
