In the case of an intrusion attempt, depending on the instructions given in the security policy, the NETASQ Firewall blocks the transmission, generates an alarm and stores the information linked to the packet which had set off the alarm.
It would be even better to protect the power supply with UPS devices. WARNING NETASQ appliances do not have power supply switches. In all cases, unplugging the power cable from the mains socket will disconnect the appliance from the main power supply.

The metal brackets on the front panel of the U6000, NG1000-A and NG5000 products are not to be used for lifting the product but only for racking the firewall or for removing it from its racks. Copyright NETASQ 2010 Page 9/65...
INSTALLATION GUIDE : 3. UPON RECEIVING YOUR FIREWALL In order to guarantee the integrity of your product, NETASQ has set up several mechanisms. Check these mechanisms to confirm that your product has not been tampered with: 3.1.1 Labels Every firewall is delivered in a cardboard box with three labels affixed, indicating information identifying the product it contains and its version.
Figure 3: Product version label 3.1.2 Quality seal Every firewall is delivered in a cardboard box on which a NETASQ-specific quality seal or a “NETASQ QUALITY SEAL” is affixed. Check that there is such a seal on your product’s packaging.
This label has the peculiarity of displaying a message (VOID) that cannot be erased once the label has been removed. There are two types of seal: one pasted by NETASQ after production and one pasted by your partner if a maintenance operation has been performed on your appliance (your partner would have explained this maintenance operation to you through an activity certificate).
(U30, U70). 3.2.1 The chassis Flexible feet have been placed under the chassis of the firewall to ensure that the NETASQ firewall is on a stable plane (on a desk or on other IT equipment) and is protected from scratches.
Online The Online LED goes off first, then Status followed by Power. The connectors on U30, U70, U120, U250 and U450 appliances are located on the front panel. The U30 appliance has the following characteristics: Copyright NETASQ 2010 Page 14/66...
Page 15
The LEDs above the interfaces provide indications as to the throughput. For the U30, an interface with a LED that does not light up indicates a throughput of 10 mbits/s, an interface with 2 LEDs that light up indicate a throughput of 100 mbits/s. Copyright NETASQ 2010 Page 15/66...
Online LED will be the last to light up when the product is running. Traffic will pass through the interfaces. When the appliance is starting, shutting down or being updated, only the Status and Power LEDs will light Copyright NETASQ 2010 Page 16/66...
3. Serial port: for connecting the firewall directly to a PC or modem. 4. PS2 mini-din port: for connecting a keyboard. 5. VGA port: for connecting a monitor. 6. Button to reset to the default configuration (defaultconfig). 7. 1 USB port: for secure configuration or updates. Copyright NETASQ 2010 Page 17/66...
NOTE: power is supplied to this appliance from inside the rear panel. An upgrade to version 8.0 is recommended. The U250 appliance has the following characteristics: Throughput of 850 Mbits/s. 400,000 concurrent connections. 6 Gigabit interfaces. 8,500 new sessions per second.

IN interface, this indicates a throughput of 10 mbits/s, 2 LEDs that light up indicate a throughput of 100 mbits/s and if the right LED lights up, this indicates a throughput of 1000 mbits/s. One or two blinking LEDs on an IN interface indicate the presence of network activity. Copyright NETASQ 2010 Page 19/66...
The Status LED will blink (quick blinking every 250 milliseconds) in the event of a major failure of the product (hardware modification, faulty network interface, etc). In this case, do contact your distributor. Copyright NETASQ 2010 Page 20/66...
