Citrix SD-WAN Platforms
3. On the back of the appliance, align the power supply with the power supply slot.
4. Insert the power supply into the slot while pressing the lever towards the handle. Apply firm
pressure to insert the power supply firmly into the slot.
5. When the power supply is completely inserted into its slot, release the lever.
6. Connect the power supply to a power source. If connecting all power supplies, plug separate
power cords into the power supplies and connect them to separate wall sockets.
Solid-state drive
A solid-state drive (SSD) is a high-performance device that stores data in solid-state flash memory. The
MPX solid-state drives contain the boot loader configuration file, configuration file (ns.conf), licenses,
and for some models, the Citrix SD-WAN soware and the user data.
All platforms store the Citrix SD-WAN soware on the SSD. The SSD is mounted as /flash.
Replacement solid-state drives (SSDs) contain a pre-installed version of the Citrix SD-WAN soware
and a generic configuration file (conf), but they do not contain SSL-related certificates and keys, or
custom boot settings. Configuration files and customized settings must be restored to a replacement
drive from a backup storage location at the customer site, if available.
To replace a solid-state drive:
1. At the Citrix SD-WAN command prompt, exit to the shell prompt. Type:
shell
2. Shut down the Citrix SD-WAN appliance by typing the following command at the shell prompt:
shutdown –p now
3. Locate the SSD on the back panel of the appliance. Push the safety latch of the drive cover to the
right or down, depending on the platform, while pulling out on the drive handle to disengage.
Pull out the faulty drive.
4. Verify that the replacement SSD is the correct type for the platform.
5. Pick up the new SSD, open the drive handle fully to the le or up, and insert the drive into the
slot as far as possible. To seat the drive, close the handle flush with the rear of the appliance so
that the drive locks securely into the slot.
Important: When you insert the drive, make sure that the Citrix product label is at the top if the
drive is inserted horizontally or at the right if the drive is inserted vertically.
1. Turn on the Citrix SD-WAN appliance. When the appliance starts, it no longer has the previous
working configuration. Therefore, the appliance is reachable only through the default IP ad-
dress of 192.168.10.1, or through the console port.
