Page 3: Contents About This Guide
By installing different combinations of IOCs and SPCs, you can tailor both the number of gigabit ports and the maximum security processing capacity to suit your network. Table 1 on page 3 describes the minimum system configuration for the IBM Ethernet Appliance J58S. -
Page 4: Step 1: Prepare The Site
IBM Ethernet Appliance J58S Getting Started Guide Step 1: Prepare the Site Figure 1: Rack Clearance and Chassis Dimensions for the IBM Ethernet Appliance J58S Rack-Mounting Requirements You can install the device in a four-post rack or cabinet or an open-frame rack. -
Page 5: Required Tools
Step 1: Prepare the Site Ensure that the cabinet allows the chassis hot exhaust air to exit the cabinet without recirculating into the device. The device must be installed into a rack that is secured to the building structure. The device should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack. -

Page 9: Install The Device Using A Lift
Ensure the rack is in its permanent location and is secured to the building. Ensure that the installation site allows adequate clearance for both airflow and maintenance. For details, see the IBM Ethernet Appliance J58S Hardware Guide. Load the device onto the lift, making sure it rests securely on the lift platform (see Figure 4 on page 9). -
Page 10: Install The Device Without A Mechanical Lift
IBM Ethernet Appliance J58S Getting Started Guide Slide the chassis onto the mounting shelves until the mounting brackets or front-mounting flanges contact the rack rails. The shelves ensure that the holes in the mounting brackets and the front-mounting flanges of the chassis align with the holes in the rack rails. -
Page 11: Remove Components
Do not stack removed components. Lay each one on a flat surface. NOTE: For complete instructions on removing device components, see Install the Ethernet Appliance Without a Mechanical Lift” in the IBM Ethernet Appliance J58S Hardware Guide. Step 3: Install the Device... -
Page 12: Lift The Chassis Into The Rack
IBM Ethernet Appliance J58S Getting Started Guide Lift the Chassis into the Rack Lifting the chassis and mounting it in a rack is a three person lift process. The empty chassis weighs approximately 150 lb (68.0 kg). Ensure the rack is in its permanent location and is secured to the building. -
Page 13: Reinstall Components
Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist, and connect the strap to one of the ESD points on the chassis. For more information about ESD, see the IBM Ethernet Appliance J58S Hardware Guide. Slide each component into the chassis evenly so that it does not become stuck or damaged. -
Page 14: Connect To A Network For Out-Of-Band Management
Connect the IOC Cables Have ready a length of the type of cable used by the IOC. For cable specifications, see the IBM Ethernet Appliance J58S Hardware Guide. If the IOC cable connector port is covered by a rubber safety plug, remove the plug. -
Page 15: Step 5: Connect Ground And Power Cables
ESD points on the chassis. For more information about ESD, see the IBM Ethernet Appliance J58S Hardware Guide. Place the grounding cable lug over the grounding point. The left pair is sized for M6 screws, and the right pair is sized for UNC 1/4-20 screws. -
Page 16: Connect Power To An Ac-Powered Ethernet Appliance
ESD points on the chassis. For more information about ESD, see the IBM Ethernet Appliance J58S Hardware Guide. Locate the power cord or cords you will use to connect the device to AC power. -

Step 6: Perform Initial Software Configuration Attach the positive (+) DC source power cable lug to the (return) terminal. Secure the power cable lugs to the terminal studs on the power supply, first with the split washer, then with the nut. Apply between 23 lb-in. (2.6 Nm) and 25 lb-in. - Page 20 IBM Ethernet Appliance J58S Getting Started Guide root@# Set the root authentication password by entering a cleartext password, an encrypted password, or an SSH public key string (DSA or RSA).
