Two RJ-45 10/100/1000Mbps ports for high-availability
control (HA1) and synchronization (HA2).
Use this Ethernet 10/100/1000Mbps port to access the
management web interface and perform administrative
tasks. The firewall also uses this port for management
services, such as retrieving licenses and updating the
threat and application signatures.
Use this port to connect a management computer to the
firewall using a 9-pin serial to RJ-45 cable and terminal
emulation software.
The console connection provides access to firewall boot
messages, the Maintenance Recovery Tool (MRT), and the
command line interface (CLI).
If your management computer does not
have a serial port, use a USB-to-serial
converter.
Use the following settings to configure your terminal
emulation software to connect to the console port:
• Data rate: 9600
• Data bits: 8
• Parity: none
• Stop bits: 1
• Flow control: None
Use the USB port to bootstrap the firewall.
Bootstrapping enables you to provision the firewall with
a specific PAN-OS configuration and then license it and
make it operational on your network.
Use this port to connect a management computer to the
firewall using a standard Type-A USB-to-micro USB cable.
The console connection provides access to firewall boot
messages, the Maintenance Recovery Tool (MRT), and the
command line interface (CLI).
Refer to Micro USB Console Port
and to download the Windows driver or to learn how to
connect from a Mac or Linux computer.
