ION 2000 The Prisma SD-WAN ION 2000, designed for the enterprise branch, transforms legacy wide area networks (WANs), enabling you to combine heterogeneous underlying transports into a unified hybrid WAN. It establishes service-level agreements (SLAs) for security, path selection, and application performance. It helps gain direct insight into end-user application performance for traditional, SaaS, modern, and encrypted applications.
ION 2000 Ports The ports on the ION 2000 are used as follows: Ports Description This port is an auxiliary access port intended for offline access, configuration, and troubleshooting a system during installation. This port is reserved for future use. Controller This port is used by ION 2000 to communicate with the Prisma SD- WAN controller.
ION 2000 Front Panel with LEDs The ION 2000 LEDs indicate the status of the disk, power, and the controller connectivity: Icons Color Displays disk status Disk activity—Orange light (Blinking) Displays controller connectivity status • Connected—Blue light • Not Connected—Red light Displays power status •...

Install ION 2000 Before you install the Prisma SD-WAN ION 2000 at a branch site, verify the following physical installation requirements, the installation kit, wall-mount, and the rack-mount components. > Rack Mount the ION 2000 > Wall Mount the ION 2000 >...
Rack Mount the ION 2000 Rack-mount the ION 2000 on a standard 19 inch rack. In the optional rack-mount kit, there are two identical L-shaped brackets that is attached to either side of the ION 2000 with two (2) screws. After you attach the brackets, mount the ION 2000 on to any standard 19 inch rack using three appropriate screws.
Wall Mount the ION 2000 Mount the Prisma SD-WAN ION 2000 on the wall using the optional wall mounting kit. STEP 1 | Gather the wall mounting brackets. Turn the ION device upside down and locate the four (4) screw holes on each corner of the STEP 2 | device.

STEP 8 | Hang the device onto the wall, making sure to match the four (4) screw holes on the bracket with the four (4) threaded nails on the wall. STEP 9 | Tighten the screws to secure the device on the wall. STEP 10 | Finally, verify that the device is securely mounted on the wall.
Set Up the ION 2000 with an Existing Router The analytic or control mode with an existing router allows you to insert the ION 2000 without modifying any network settings at the remote office. The ION 2000 utilizes an inline insertion method with fail-to- wire redundancy to accomplish this.

• Controller Port: Connect the controller port to an ethernet port. The controller port is used for ION- to-network controller communication and monitoring. By default, it is configured as a DHCP client. • Internet or WAN or LAN Ports: • Ports 1 to 3 are used as internet, WAN, or LAN ports. Ports 2 and 3 are DHCP-enabled by default. •...
Set Up the ION 2000 by Replacing the Router In control mode, you replace the existing router with the ION 2000 as a drop-in replacement for a WAN router. This mode is most useful for saving cost at new sites that are designed without a traditional router. Prepare the cabling of the ION 2000 to the rest of the network.
