PA-7000 Series Firewall Module and
Interface Card Informaon
The PA-7000 Series firewalls are modular systems and requires a minimum set of
front slot cards. The required cards include the Switch Management Card (SMC),
Log Processing Card (LPC) or Log Forwarding Card (LFC), and at least one Network
Processing Card (NPC). To expand port density and throughput, you can install a total
of six NPCs in the PA-7050 firewall and ten NPCs in the PA-7080 firewall. For details
on installing front slot cards, see
Slot Cards.
Although all front slot cards have protecon to prevent damage if they are installed
or removed when the chassis is powered on, only the NPCs are intended to be
hot#swapped.
