It helps gain direct insight into end-user application performance for traditional, SaaS, modern, encrypted applications. ION 3000 participates in bi-directional communications with the Prisma SD-WAN controller, enabling configuration of devices, applications, and WANs, providing analytics on devices and applications.
This port is used to connect to internet service. By default, this port is protected by a firewall. Internet Bypass This port is only used in ION 3000 HA scenarios. It should not be used in single ION device scenarios. This port is intended for private LAN network connectivity. By default, this port is bridged to the corresponding WAN port.
ION 3000 Front Panel with LEDs The ION 3000 LEDs indicate the status of the disk, power, and the controller connectivity: Icons Description Displays disk status. Orange light (Blinking)—Disk Activity. Displays controller connectivity status. Blue light—Connected. Red light—Not Connected Displays power status.

ION 3000 Installation Kit Components The ION 3000 installation kit contains the following parts and tools to install the device. • 1x 19-inch 1U rack mount kit with two ears with 3-hole rail patterns with corresponding screws. • 2x Red Cat6 Crossover/Rollover Ethernet Cable.
ION 3000 Common Insertion Topologies You can install the ION 3000 in three possible insertion scenarios in analytics or control mode with an existing router: • Single Router or Single Switch—The following image illustrates the deployment architecture of an ION 3000 as single router or single switch.
Press the power switch 5 times (press and hold for 1 second, then, release) to shut down the device. Reboot the ION 3000 Press the power switch 3 or 4 times to reboot the ION 3000. ION 3000 HARDWARE REFERENCE | ION 3000 Overview...
By installing the ION with an existing router, you can physically insert the ION 3000 into a network, thereby reducing interruption and insertion planning to a minimum. Or you can install the ION 3000 to replace an existing router, especially in environments where routers are not already present or required.
Rack Mount the ION 3000 Rack mount the ION 3000 on a standard 19 inch rack. Two identical ears that can be attached to either side of the ION 3000 with three (3) screws are included with the ION 3000 accessory kit.
Set Up the ION 3000 with an Existing Router Set up the ION 3000 in the analytics or control mode with an existing router. This allows you to insert the ION 3000 in the network without making any modification to network settings at the remote office. To...
Set Up the ION 3000 by Replacing the Router Set up the ION 3000 by replacing the existing router. This mode allows you to configure the ION 3000 as a drop-in replacement for a WAN router in control mode and is most useful for saving cost at new sites that are designed without a traditional router in mind.
