IP560 Security Platform Installation Guide 29
The location and definition of the status LEDs for the installed network
interface cards (NICs) is described in Chapter 5, “Connecting PMC Network
Interface Cards.”
Note
The symbols in Table 5 are visible only if there is an alarm condition, as
specified.
Logging Options
The IP560 supports two options for storing local system log files, as described
in the following topics:
Using Hard-Disk Drives for Logging
Using PC Card for Logging
Note
You can use only one device for logging (whether hard disk or PC CARD)
so only one should be plugged into the system at any one time.
Using Hard-Disk Drives for Logging
The IP560 security platform is a flash-based (diskless) appliance that also
supports one or two optional hard-disk drives that plug into connectors on the
motherboard. Each hard-disk drive provides 40 GB of disk storage.
The hard-disk drives are not included in the standard package. When you
purchase your IP560, you can order one or two hard disk drives for factory
installation or order them later and install them yourself, as described in
“Installing a Hard-Disk Drive” on page 116.
You can use a single hard disk drive for storing log files.
