Pre-Installation Requirements

Site Requirements

Each device must be located in an area with a temperature range of 41–104
F (4-40
An AC power outlet of the appropriate voltage (115 or 230 VAC) must be
located within five feet of each device.
For adequate air flow, the unit must have at least six inches of clearance at
the rear and at least two inches at the sides, front, and top. Provide enough
space in the rear to allow installation or removal of cables without moving
the unit.
For reference, some specifications are:
Model 2:
Rackmount:
High-Availability:17.0w x 24.0d x 6.7h in., 43.2w x 61.0d x 17.0h cm.

Hardware Requirements

Each FRX8000 requires an attached keyboard and VGA monitor for initial instal-
lation and configuration. (A VGA port exists in each node.) Although the Enter-
prise Switch and ICP Switch do not need the keyboard or monitor for normal
operation, these devices can be helpful for verification of proper startup, as well as
occasional local monitoring and troubleshooting.

Network-level Configuration Requirements

At an FRX8000 INM Switch in the operational network, database records
(described in the Netlink FRX8000 User Guide) must be created for the new node,
so the software will know the node type, hardware present in the node, types of
devices connected to the node, and the information necessary for proper routing
and addressing of data among user devices. This can be done at any time before the
new node is connected into the network.
At least one port in the new node must be configured as a trunk to another node, to
allow communication among nodes.
