Install the ION 9000 STEP 1 | Aach the rack-mount brackets to the ION 9000 1. Unpack the installaon kit and retrieve the rails. 2. Remove the chassis mounng brackets from the rails by extending the bracket out and sliding the bracket release buon towards the front to fully withdraw it from the rails. The ION 9000 uses the chassis mounng brackets to aach to the slide rails for mounng on the rack.

Install the ION 9000 STEP 3 | Slide the ION 9000 into the rails 1. Align the mounng brackets on the ION 9000 with the slide rail slot and push the ION 9000 in. 2. Slide the bracket release buon on both the brackets and slide the ION 9000 into the rack unl it clicks into place.
Install the ION 9000 Install the ION 9000 in Virtual In-Path Configuraon The Prisma SD-WAN ION 9000 uses a virtual in-path configuraon to allow the system to perform SD-WAN operaons as it enters and exits the data center. This mode of operaon allows the ION 9000 cluster to: •...
Install the ION 9000 Connect the controller 1 port to a copper 1G ethernet port, similar to how client PC or Laptops are connected to a corporate network. Ensure that you allow outbound internet access on port 443 to enable communicaon between the controller port and the Prisma SD-WAN controller service.
Install the ION 9000 Install ION 9000 in High Availability The Prisma SD-WANprovides a horizontally-scalable, high availability (HA) soluon between branch sites and data center clusters. STEP 1 | Add a second ION 9000 to the data center that requires high availability (HA). STEP 2 | Use the same ports to cable the second ION 9000.
