5) Connect the cables and plug the power cables to the system and to the wall outlets.
6) Turn on the appliance.
CAUTION: To ensure proper cooling, do not turn on the appliance if you have not installed an
interface module or a placeholder module in each slot.
7) Update the interface configuration.
a) On the command line of the NGFW Engine, enter the following command to start the NGFW
Configuration Wizard:
sg-reconfigure
b) In the network interface configuration options, make sure that the autodetected information is correct
and that all interfaces have been detected.
If autodetection fails, add network drivers manually. For detailed instructions, see the Forcepoint Next
Generation Firewall Installation Guide.
c) If the number of ports in the new module differs from the old module, adjust the mapping of interfaces to
interface IDs.
CAUTION: Do not select the Clear action when modifying interface IDs in the NGFW
Configuration Wizard on the command line. Selecting Clear removes all mapping
information between interface IDs and Ethernet ports, and restores the default values.
d) On the Prepare for Management Contact page, highlight Finish, then press Enter.
e) If the number of ports in the new module differs from the old module, modify the interface definitions in
the Management Client, then refresh the policy to transfer the interface changes to the engine.
Make sure to use the same interface IDs that you mapped to the interfaces in the NGFW Configuration
Wizard for the interface definitions in the Management Client.
Reattach the cover plate to the interface
module slot
Reattach the module cover plate if there is no module in the slot.
CAUTION: Do not turn on the appliance if a slot is empty or uncovered. Using the appliance without
an interface module or the cover plate can damage the appliance and voids the warranty.
Note: We recommend fastening a grounding strap to your wrist so that it contacts your bare skin
and attaching the other end of the strap to the appliance.
