Note
2-post grounding lug
Note
The 2-post grounding lug is included in the accessory kit.
The power switch is located to the left of power supply module 1 on the rear of the chassis. It is a toggle switch that controls power to the system. If the power switch is in standby position, only the 3.3-V standby power is enabled from the power supply module and the 12-V main power is OFF. When the switch is in the ON position, the 12-V main power is turned on and the system boots.
Before you move the power switch to the OFF position, use the shutdown commands so that the system can perform a graceful shutdown. This may take several minutes to complete. After the graceful shutdown is completed, the front panel power LED is unlit and the console displays Power Down. See the FXOS
Configuration Guide for more information on using these commands.
If you move the power switch to the OFF position before the shutdown command sequence has completed or if you remove the system power cords before the graceful shutdown is complete, disk corruption can occur.
After removing power from the chassis by unplugging the power cord, wait at least 10 seconds before turning power back ON.

Hardware Bypass Network Modules
Fail-to-wire (also known as hardware bypass) is a physical layer (Layer 1) bypass that allows paired interfaces to go into bypass mode so that the hardware forwards packets between these port pairs without software intervention. Fail-to-wire provides network connectivity when there are software or hardware failures. Hardware bypass is useful on ports where the Firepower security appliance is only monitoring or logging traffic. The hardware bypass network modules have an optical switch that is capable of connecting the two ports when needed.

1-G SX/10-G SR/10-G LR Network Module with Hardware Bypass

Note
Hardware bypass is only supported in inline mode. Also, hardware bypass support depends on your software application.
Note
When the appliance switches from normal operation to hardware bypass or from hardware bypass back to normal operation, traffic may be interrupted for several seconds. A number of factors can affect the length of the interruption; for example, behavior of the optical link partner such as how it handles link faults and debounce timing; spanning tree protocol convergence; dynamic routing protocol convergence; and so on. During this time, you may experience dropped connections.
There are three configuration options for hardware bypass network modules:
• Passive interfaces—Connection to a single port.
For each network segment you want to monitor passively, connect the cables to one interface. This is how the non-fail-to-wire network modules operate.
Overview
• Inline interfaces—Connection to any two like ports (10 G to 10 G for example) on one network module, across network modules, or fixed ports.
For each network segment you want to monitor inline, connect the cables to pairs of interfaces.
• Inline with fail-to-wire interfaces—Connection of a fail-to-wire paired set.
For each network segment that you want to configure inline with fail-open, connect the cables to the paired interface set.
For the 40-G network module, you connect the two ports to form a paired set. For the 1/10-G network modules, you connect the top port to the bottom port to form a fail-to-wire paired set. This allows traffic to flow even if the security appliance fails or loses power.
Note
If you have a inline interface set with a mix of fail-to-wire and non-fail-to-wire interfaces, you cannot enable hardware bypass on this inline interface set. You can only enable hardware bypass on an inline interface set if all the pairs in the inline set are valid fail-to-wire pairs.

Power Supply Modules
The Firepower 2110 and 2120 have one fixed AC power supply that is not field-replaceable. If the power supply fails, you must send your Firepower 2110 or 2120 for RMA.
The Firepower 2130 and 2140 support two AC power supply modules so that dual power supply redundancy protection is available. The Firepower 2130 ships with one AC power supply and the Firepower 2140 ships with two AC power supplies. You can also install DC power supply modules instead of AC power on the 2130 and 2140. Facing the back of the chassis, the power supply modules are numbered left to right, for example, PSU1 and PSU2.
The power supply module is hot-swappable.

Overview
The Firepower 2130 and 2140 have a removable fan tray with 3 + 1 redundant fans that are hot-swappable. The fan tray is installed in the rear of the chassis. Any one fan can fail indefinitely and the system continues to function. When a fan fails, the remaining fans automatically spin up to full speed.
The fan LED is located on the front of the chassis. See Product ID Numbers, on page 30 for a list of the PIDs associated with the 2100 series fans.
For More Information
• See Front Panel LEDs, on page 10 for the location and description of the fan LED.

Caution
Note
You can use the second SSD slot to upgrade to the MSP. The MSP must be installed in the second slot. The second SSD slot remains empty unless you install the MSP in the second slot. The MSP stores threat detection results for use in future analysis. It supports the Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) software feature. It is used as both storage and as the Malware application repository. RAID is not supported.
You cannot swap SSDs between different Firepower platforms. For example, you cannot use a 4100 series SSD in a 2100 series security appliance.
The 100-GB SSD is restricted to the 2110 and 2120 models. The 200-GB SSD is restricted to the 2130 and 2140 models. Do not mix them.
Although the hardware supports hot swapping for the SSDs, the software does not, so you must power down the chassis before removing and replacing them.

Maintain Safety with Electricity

Installation Preparation
Warning
Before working on a chassis, be sure the power cord is unplugged.
Be sure to read the document before installing the security appliance.
Follow these guidelines when working on equipment powered by electricity:
• Before beginning procedures that require access to the interior of the chassis, locate the emergency power-off switch for the room in which you are working. Then, if an electrical accident occurs, you can act quickly to turn off the power.
• Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist anywhere in your work space.
• Never assume that power is disconnected; always check.
• Look carefully for possible hazards in your work area, such as moist floors, ungrounded power extension cables, frayed power cords, and missing safety grounds.
• If an electrical accident occurs:
• Use caution; do not become a victim yourself.
• Disconnect power from the system.
• If possible, send another person to get medical aid. Otherwise, assess the condition of the victim, and then call for help.

Installation Preparation

Prevent ESD Damage

ESD occurs when electronic components are improperly handled, and it can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry, resulting in intermittent or complete failure.
Always follow ESD-prevention procedures when removing and replacing components. Ensure that the chassis is electrically connected to an earth ground. Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes good skin contact. Connect the grounding clip to an unpainted surface of the chassis frame to safely ground ESD voltages. To properly guard against ESD damage and shocks, the wrist strap and cord must operate effectively. If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching the metal part of the chassis.
For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap, which should be between one and 10 megohms.

Site Environment

See Hardware Specifications, on page 29 for information about physical specifications.
Prevent ESD Damage
When planning the site layout and equipment locations, consider the information in the next sections to help avoid equipment failures and reduce the possibility of environmentally caused shutdowns. If you are currently experiencing shutdowns or unusually high error rates with your existing equipment, these considerations may help you isolate the cause of failures and prevent future problems.

Site Considerations

Considering the following helps you plan an acceptable operating environment for the chassis, and avoid environmentally caused equipment failures.
• Electrical equipment generates heat. Ambient air temperature might not be adequate to cool equipment to acceptable operating temperatures without adequate circulation. Ensure that the room in which you operate your system has adequate air circulation.
• Ensure that the chassis cover is secure. The chassis is designed to allow cooling air to flow effectively within it. An open chassis allows air leaks, which may interrupt and redirect the flow of cooling air from the internal components.
• Always follow the ESD-prevention procedures described previously to avoid damage to equipment. Damage from static discharge can cause immediate or intermittent equipment failure.

Power Supply Considerations

See Power Supply Modules, on page 23 for more detailed information about the power supply modules for your model.
When installing the chassis, consider the following:
• Check the power at the site before installing the chassis to ensure that it is “clean” (free of spikes and noise). Install a power conditioner, if necessary, to ensure proper voltages and power levels in the appliance input voltage.
Cisco Firepower 2100 Series Hardware Installation Guide
43

Rack Configuration Considerations

• Install proper grounding for the site to avoid damage from lightning and power surges.
• The chassis does not have a user-selectable operating range. Refer to the label on the chassis for the correct appliance input-power requirement.
• Several styles of AC-input power supply cords are available; make sure that you have the correct style for your site.
• Install an uninterruptible power source for your site, if possible.
• If you are using dual redundant (1+1) power supplies, we recommend that you use independent electrical circuits for each power supply.
Rack Configuration Considerations
Consider the following when planning an equipment-rack configuration:
• If you are mounting a chassis in an open rack, make sure that the rack frame does not block the intake or exhaust ports.
Installation Preparation
• Be sure enclosed racks have adequate ventilation. Make sure that the rack is not overly congested as each chassis generates heat. An enclosed rack should have louvered sides and a fan to provide cooling air.
• In an enclosed rack with a ventilation fan in the top, heat generated by equipment near the bottom of the rack can be drawn upward and into the intake ports of the equipment above it in the rack. Ensure that you provide adequate ventilation for equipment at the bottom of the rack.
• Baffles can help to isolate exhaust air from intake air, which also helps to draw cooling air through the chassis. The best placement of the baffles depends on the airflow patterns in the rack. Experiment with different arrangements to position the baffles effectively.

Step 1 Connect the Ethernet 1/1 (outside) interface to your ISP/WAN modem or other outside device. By default, the IP address
is obtained using DHCP, but you can set a static address during initial configuration. For Smart Software Licensing, the Firepower 2100 needs internet access so that it can access the License Authority.
Step 2 Connect a local management computer, the one you are using to configure the Firepower 2100, to the inside interface
Ethernet 1/2.
Step 3 Configure the management computer to obtain an IP address using DHCP. The management computer gets an address
on the 192.168.1.0/24 network.
Note
You have other options for connecting the management computer. You can directly connect it to the management port. The management computer gets an address through DHCP on the 192.168.45.0/24 network. Or you can leave your management computer attached to a switch, and attach that switch to GigabitEthernet 1/2. However, you must make sure that no other device on the switch's network is running a DHCP server, because it will conflict with the one running on the inside interface, 192.168.1.1.
Step 4 Connect other data interfaces as needed using SFP/SFP+ transceivers. Install SFP/SFP+/ transceivers in the Ethernet
network interfaces in the 4 fixed ports or in the network module (Firepower 2130/2140 only) taking care not to touch the contacts in the rear.
Warning
Do not force an SFP transceiver into a socket. This can jam the transceiver and can cause permanent damage to the transceiver, the chassis, or both.
Caution
Although non-Cisco SFPs are allowed, we do not recommend using them because they have not been tested and validated by Cisco. Cisco TAC may refuse support for any interoperability problems that result from using an untested third-party SFP transceiver. See Supported SFP/SFP+ Transceivers, on page 26 for a list of supported Cisco transceivers.
Note
Use appropriate ESD procedures when inserting the transceiver. Avoid touching the contacts at the rear, and keep the contacts and ports free of dust and dirt. Store unused SPFs in their ESD packaging.
Step 5 Attach the power cable to the chassis and connect it to an electrical outlet.
Step 6 Press the power switch on the rear panel.
Step 7 Check the PWR LED on the front panel. Solid green indicates that the chassis is powered on.
Step 8 Check the SYS LED on the front panel. Solid green indicates that the system has passed power-on diagnostics.
Note
When you toggle the power switch from ON to OFF, it takes several seconds for the system to power off. Do not remove the power cable until the PWR LED is completely off. After removing power from the chassis by unplugging the power cord, wait at least 10 seconds before turning power back ON. See Rear Panel, on page 14 for more information on the power switch.

Step 2 Connect the Ethernet 1/1 (outside) interface to a WAN device, for example, a cable modem. For Smart Software Licensing,
the Firepower 2100 needs internet access so that it can access the License Authority.
Step 3 Connect other data interfaces as needed using SFP/SFP+ transceivers. Install SFP/SFP+/ transceivers in the Ethernet
network interfaces in the four fixed ports or in the network module (Firepower 2130/2140 only) taking care not to touch the contacts in the rear.
Warning
Caution
Note
Step 4 Attach the power cable to the chassis and connect it to an electrical outlet.
Step 5 Press the power switch on the rear panel.
Step 6 Check the PWR LED on the front panel. Solid green indicates that the chassis is powered on.
Step 7 Check the SYS LED on the front panel. Solid green indicates that the system has passed power-on diagnostics.
You can connect inside and management on the same network because the management interface acts like a separate device that belongs only to Firepower management.
Do not force an SFP transceiver into a socket. This can jam the transceiver and can cause permanent damage to the transceiver, the chassis, or both.
Although non-Cisco SFPs are allowed, we do not recommend using them because they have not been tested and validated by Cisco. Cisco TAC may refuse support for any interoperability problems that result from using an untested third-party SFP transceiver. See Supported SFP/SFP+ Transceivers, on page 26 for a list of supported Cisco transceivers.
Use appropriate ESD procedures when inserting the transceiver. Avoid touching the contacts at the rear, and keep the contacts and ports free of dust and dirt. Store unused SPFs in their ESD packaging.
Note
Step 8 See the Cisco Firepower Threat Defense for the Firepower 2100 Series Using Firepower Management Center Quick Start
Guide for more information about configuring the Firepower 2100.
When you toggle the power switch from ON to OFF, it takes several seconds for the system to power off. Do not remove the power cable until the PWR LED is completely off. After removing power from the chassis by unplugging the power cord, wait at least 10 seconds before turning power back ON. See Rear Panel, on page 14 for more information on the power switch.

Before you begin
• The color coding of the DC input power supply leads depends on the color coding of the DC power source at your site. Make sure that the lead color coding you choose for the DC input power supply matches the lead color coding used at the DC power source and verify that the power source is connected to the negative (–) terminal and to the positive (+) terminal on the power supply.
• Make sure that the chassis ground is connected on the chassis before you begin installing the DC power supply. See Ground the Chassis, on page 54 for the procedure.
Step 1 Verify that the power is off to the DC circuit on the power supply module that you are installing.
Step 2 While supporting the power supply module with one hand, insert the power supply module into the power supply bay
and gently push it in. See the illustration above for the location of the handle.
Step 3 Use a wire-stripping tool to strip each of the 2 wires coming from the DC input power source. Strip the wires to
approximately 0.39 inch (10 mm) + 0.02 inch (0.5 mm). We recommend you use 14 AWG insulated wire.
Note
Do not strip more than the recommended length of wire because doing so could leave the wire exposed from the terminal block.
