Power on the Sensor
Before you begin
Do not attempt to power on the Sensor until you have installed the Sensor in a rack, made all
necessary network connections, and connected the power cable to the power supply.
If you are installing a redundant power supply, you should install it as described in Installing a power supply. For
true redundant operation with the optional redundant power supply, McAfee recommends that you plug each
supply into a dierent power circuit.
