User guide

Bonding ports cannot span separate networks (multi-homed).
•
Management port—The SA6500’s management port:
•
Enables seamless integration into a dedicated Management Network.
•
Provides continuously available management access to the Secure Access Service.
•
Enables you to perform management activities without impacting user traffic.
•
Allows you to separate administrative access from user access between the Secure
Access Service and Enterprise devices on the internal network.
You can configure the Management port information and advanced settings via the
admin console, just as you would configure the internal port.
•
SFP ports—4-port Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) ports are available as an optional
feature for link redundancy to internal switches.
•
Status LEDs—Three device status LEDs are located on the left-side of the front panel
to display power, hard disk access and fault status.
•
Ethernet Port LEDs—The Ethernet port LEDs show the status of each Ethernet port.
The appliance supports up to four node active/active clusters or 2 node active/passive.
SA Series 6500 Field-Replaceable Units
The SA 6500 chassis features three types of field-replaceable units (FRUs) that you can
add or replace. The FRUs are “hot-swappable,” meaning you do not have to first shut
down the SA 6500 before adding or replacing any of the FRUs. The SA4500 has a
“cold-swappable” power supply.
For safety information, refer to the Juniper Networks Products Safety Guide available on
the Juniper Networks Support site.
•
Hard disks—The SA6500 ships with one hard disk, however, you can add an optional
second hard disk to the SA6500 chassis to offer component redundancy and help
minimize the Secure Access Service down time. When a second (redundant) hard disk
is installed, it maintains an exact copy of the software image and configuration
information on the working hard disk. Therefore, if the working hard disk fails, the
redundant hard disk immediately assumes responsibility for all Secure Access Service
operations. This function is referred to as the Redundant Array of Independent Disks
(RAID) mirroring process.
NOTE: The SA6500 hard disk modules are hot-swappable. You must make
sure that the Secure Access Service finishes booting and is operating
correctly before removing, replacing, or upgrading a hard disk module. After
you insert a new hard disk module, you must wait until the RAID mirroring
process is completely finished—which takes approximately 40
minutes—before rebooting or turning off the Secure Access Service.
