SD-WAN fabric across branches and data centers. It is designed to install seamlessly in the data center by peering with adjacent data center devices using tradional, standard-based roung protocols. Deploy the ION 7000 in an off-path model enabling elasc, non-disrupve scale-out and high availability (HA).
This port is used by the ION device to communicate with the Prisma SD-WAN controller. Internet/Peering Ports These ports on the ION 7000 are used as internet ports or peering ports. SFP Ports These ports are used for 10 gigabit connecvity in copper or fiber form factors.
ION 7000 Overview ION 7000 Front Panel with LEDs The ION 7000 LEDs indicate the following status: Icons Descripon Displays power status. Blue light—Powered on. No light—Powered off. Displays controller connecvity status. Blue light—Connected. No light—Not Connected. ION 7000 Hardware Reference 2021 Palo Alto Networks, Inc.
ION 7000 Overview ION 7000 Specificaons The following are the device specificaons of ION 7000: Specificaon Descripon Place in Network Large, remote office data center. Controller Ports 2 x 10/100/1000 RJ-45 WAN/LAN/Internet Ports 6 x 10 GE SFP+8 x 10/100/1000 RJ-45, port pairs 5/6 and 7/8 have programmable inline fail-to-wire capability for use in branch device mode.
ION 7000 Overview ION 7000 Installaon Kit Components The ION 7000 installaon kit contains the following parts and tools to install the device: • 2x 19-inch 1U rack mount sliding rails built-in with quick-aach square hole adapters. • 4x Rail slides with accompanying screws.
Press the power switch 5 mes (press and hold for 1 second, then, release) to shut down the device. Reboot the ION 7000 Press the power switch 3 or 4 mes to reboot the ION 7000. ION 7000 Hardware Reference 2021 Palo Alto Networks, Inc.

• 19-inch slide lock ears The ION 7000 accessory kit contains slide lock ears for the front sides of the ION 7000. Use these ears to prevent the ION 7000 from detaching from the rack aer they are fully installed.
1. Insert the slide rails into a standard 19-inch rack making sure that the rails snap into place. 2. Aach the chassis-mounng brackets to either side of the ION 7000. 3. Slide the ION 7000 into the rack and confirm that the device is installed securely in the rack. If the rack has threaded round holes: 1.
Orient the front bracket of both rails in the same direcon. STEP 2 | Mount the rails securely and then insert the ION 7000 into the front of the sliding rails. The following figure illustrate the ION 7000 rack mounng the sliding rails: ION 7000 Hardware Reference 2021 Palo Alto Networks, Inc.
The ION 7000 uses a virtual in-path concept to allow the system to perform SD-WAN operaons on as it enters and exits the data center. This mode of operaon allows the ION 7000 cluster to: • Solicit very specific traffic for specific endpoints using tradional network roung protocols.
This internet port must allow inbound UDP 4500 to the ION 7000 from remote ION devices. If a firewall or NAT is used outside the ION 7000 on this port, UDP 4500 needs to be port-forwarded or passed-through from the firewall or NAT device.

Install the ION 7000 STEP 2 | Physically plug in the ports from the ION 7000 devices to the appropriate devices. STEP 3 | Record the ION port numbers and connecng device port informaon for future reference. ION 7000 Hardware Reference 2021 Palo Alto Networks, Inc.
The Prisma SD-WAN ION 7000 provides a horizontally-scalable, high availability (HA) soluon between branch sites and data center clusters. STEP 1 | Add a second ION 7000 to the data center that requires high availability (HA). STEP 2 | Mimic the exisng ION 7000 cabling for the second ION 7000 device.

There is no addional configuraon required on the second ION device, except for IP addresses. Both the ION 7000 devices peer with the same core and WAN edge routers. The second ION device inherits the same BGP configuraon as the first device.
