SUMMARY This procedure guides you through the simplest steps to install your SRX320 Firewall in a rack and connect it to power. Have more complex installation needs? See Installing the SRX320 Firewall in a Rack.

Install the SRX320 in a Rack

You can install the SRX320 Firewall in a two-post rack or cabinet. We’ll walk you through the steps to install an AC-powered firewall in a two-post rack.
  1. Wrap and fasten one end of the electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap around your bare wrist, and connect the other end to a site ESD point.
  2. Attach the mounting bracket and power supply adapter tray to the sides of the SRX320 using the screws that came with the rack mount kit and the screwdriver.
  3. Place the power supply adapter in the tray.
  4. Lift the SRX320 and position it in the rack. Line up the bottom hole in the mounting brackets with a hole in each rack rail, making sure the SRX320 is level.
  5. While you’re holding the SRX320 in place, have a second person insert and tighten the rack mount screws to secure the adapter tray and mounting brackets to the mounting rails. Make sure to tighten the screws in the two bottom holes first and then tighten the screws in the two top holes.
  6. Check that the mounting brackets on each side of the rack are level.

Connect to Power

To connect the SRX320 Firewall to AC power, you must do the following:

Connect the Power Cord and Power On the Firewall

To connect the power cord, do the following:

  1. Wrap and fasten one end of the electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap around your bare wrist, and connect the other end to a site ESD point.

  2. Plug the DC connector end of the power cable into the power connector at the back of the SRX320.

  3. Plug the AC adapter end of the power cable into the power supply adapter.

  4. If the AC power source outlet has a power switch, turn it off.

  5. Plug the power cord into an AC power source outlet.

  6. If the AC power source outlet has a power switch, turn it on. The firewall doesn't have a power switch and powers on as soon as you plug it in.
