Grounding the firewall with a grounding strip If a grounding strip is available at the installation site, connect the grounding cable through the grounding strip. To connect the grounding cable: Remove the grounding screw from the firewall chassis. Attach the grounding screw to the ring terminal of the grounding cable. Use a Phillips screwdriver to fasten the grounding screw into the grounding hole on the firewall.
Installing power modules CAUTION: • Make sure the power module is powered off and the grounding cable is correctly connected before installation. • Do not install both AC and DC power modules on the same firewall. • Only the F1070, F1080, and F1090 firewalls support removable power modules. Installing a power module for the F1070/F1080 Face the rear panel of the firewall.
Figure 15 Removing the filler panel from the F1090 The firewall comes with the PWR1 slot empty and the PWR0 slot installed with a filler panel. Orient the power module with its handle at the right. Holding the handle of the module with one hand and supporting the module bottom with the other, slide the power module slowly into the slot along the guide rails.
IMPORTANT: The device does not come with any hard disks and cannot recognize hard disks from other vendors. Purchase hard disks from H3C as needed. Installing a hard disk Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded.
Figure 19 Installing a hard disk NOTE: Before using the hard disk, execute the fdisk and format commands from the CLI to partition and format the hard disk. Removing a hard disk CAUTION: To avoid storage medium damage, execute the umount command from the CLI to unmount all the file systems before removing a hard disk.
(Optional) Installing a lightning arrester for an AC power module No lightning arrester is provided with the firewall. Purchase one as needed. If part of the AC power cord is routed outdoors, install a lightning arrester to the power input end to protect the firewall from being damaged by lightning strikes.

Displaying the operational statistics of the firewall When you perform routine maintenance or the system fails, you might need to view the operational information of each functional module for locating failures. Typically you need to run display commands one by one. To collect more information one time, you can execute the display diagnostic-information command in any view to display or save the operational statistics of multiple functional modules of the firewall.
• Power on the firewall after powering it off, which is also called hard reboot or cold start. H3C does not recommend that you use this method because it might cause data loss and hardware damages.
Troubleshooting Power module failure Symptom The firewall cannot be powered on, and the power LED (PWR0/PWR1) on the front panel is off. Solution To solve the issue: Power off the firewall. Verify that the power supply is as required by the firewall. Verify that the power cords of the firewall are firmly connected.
