  • Page 20: Removing Line Cards

    Removing line cards The Firebox V200 has two line cards, which are installed from the front side of the appliance. These cards are not redundant or hot-swappable. You must complete a system shutdown in CLI or Vcontroller and turn off the appliance before you replace the line cards.
  • Page 21 You must properly shutdown the system and turn off the power switch on the rear of the unit before removing a line card. Failure to do so could cause file corruption or damage to the board or system. Attach an ESD strap to your wrist and to the grounding connector at the back of the unit before opening the appliance or removing any card or module.

    Replacing a fan card The Firebox V200 operates with two fan cards. To view the status of each fan card, check the Fan Card Status LEDs on the front of the unit. If one of the five fans on a fan card is not operating, the status light for that card turns from green to red.
  • Page 23 The fan status light changes to red when any one or more of the five fans on the fan card are not operating. To maintain optimal cooling, the fan card should be replaced promptly when the light is red. However, do not remove the fan card until a replacement fan card is available.
  • Page 24 When one fan card is removed, the blades on the other fan card continue to spin to provide cooling as long as the appliance is powered. Do not leave the appliance unattended when a fan card is removed. ARNING ARNING WatchGuard Firebox V200...
