Installing the Appliance into the Network

To physically install the appliance into your network, do the following:

1. With the appliance powered OFF, install a crossover cable (red) between Exinda's WAN port (eth3) and the Router/Firewall.
2. Install a straight-through cable (blue) between the Exinda LAN port (eth2) and the LAN switch.
3. Ensure that there is still connectivity through the appliance. This will ensure that the Ethernet bypass is working.
4. Install a straight-through cable (blue) between the Exinda management port 1 and the LAN switch.
5. Plug in the power cord.
6. Switch on the appliance and ensure that the NIC lights flash and traffic is passing through.
