INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
A Firewall is a central device in your network, therefore do not neglect it – install it in the best way
possible, under the best conditions.
NOTE
Instructions on how to connect products are also given in the Poster Quick Installation
Guide provided with the Firewall.
Conditions of use (all models except SNi40)
The Stormshield Network Firewall has been designed to run continuously, in an office or in a
server room. If you wish to install your appliance in an office, choose a flat and uncluttered
surface. Add the non-slip rubber feet to SN510, SN710 and SN910 models; stick a non-slip
rubber foot to the underside of the appliance, close to each corner about 2 cm from the edges.
This will ensure the stability of the Firewall and protect it from scratches.
WARNING
The firewall has to be installed in compliance with the state of the art corresponding to the
practical terms of secure installation, i.e., in a protected office or other premises with limited
access. In order to guarantee the integrity of the product and to avoid compromising the
security of your installation, all unauthorized access to the Firewall has to be avoided.
NOTE
Ensure that the cables do not obstruct passageways to prevent them from being pulled
out or the product from falling.
Do not install and/or operate your Stormshield Firewall in any place that flammable objects are
stored or used in. Your Stormshield Firewall is intended for indoor use (office environment or other
IT environment), away from areas that may receive rainfall, floods or excessive humidity. It must
be installed away from sources of shocks, vibrations, and dust, in an environment where the
temperature conforms to the product's specifications.
The ideal ambient temperature is around 25°C. The tables below set out the operational
temperature, storage temperature and humidity level for all models of SN range.
