WARNING!
!
This Sourcere Defense Center should be installed and maintained
by qualied personnel only. Keep in mind the following safety
information to avoid system damage or personal injury:
Remove all factory packaging before using the Defense Center.•
Provide adequate ventilation to prevent overheating. Do not •
cover or block vents, or otherwise enclose the Defense Center.
The Defense Center must be properly grounded when •
connecting power to the power outlet.
At all times, keep the chassis area free from dust.•
Lifting the chassis for rack installation may require two people, •
as the unit is heavy.
To avoid electrical shock, do not open or remove the chassis •
covers or metal parts without proper instruction.

Installing the Defense Center
The Sourcere 3D System is delivered on different hardware platforms that you can
rack-mount. When you install a Defense Center, make sure that you can access the
Defense Center’s console for initial setup.
You can access the console for the rst conguration of a new Defense Center using a
keyboard and monitor with KVM, or using an Ethernet connection to the management
interface.
Keyboard and Monitor/KVM
You can connect a USB keyboard and VGA monitor to any Sourcere Defense Center,
which is useful for rack-mounted Defense Centers connected to a keyboard, video, and
mouse (KVM) switch.
IMPORTANT! Do not use a KVM switch with USB mass storage to access the Defense
Center because the Defense Center may attempt to use the mass storage device as a
boot device.
INSTALLATION
Ethernet Connection to Management Interface
Congure a local computer, which must not be connected to the internet, with the
following network settings:
IP address: • 192.168.45.2
netmask: • 255.255.255.0
default gateway: • 192.168.45.1
Using an Ethernet cable, connect the network interface on the local computer to the
management interface on the Defense Center. To interact with the Defense Center, use
terminal emulation software such as HyperTerminal or XModem. The settings for this
software are as follows:
9600 baud•
8 data bits•
no parity checking•
1 stop bit•
no ow control•
Note that the management interface on a physical Sourcere Defense Center
is precongured with a default IPv4 address. However, you can recongure the
management interface with an IPv6 address as part of the setup process.

Installation Procedure
To install the Defense Center:
Mount the Defense Center in your rack using the mounting kit and its supplied 1.
instructions.
Connect to the Defense Center using either a keyboard and monitor or an Ethernet 2.
connection.
If you are using a keyboard and monitor to set up the Defense Center, use an •
Ethernet cable now to connect the management interface to a protected network
segment.
If you plan to perform the initial setup process by connecting a computer directly •
to the Defense Center’s physical management interface, you will connect the
management interface to the protected network when you nish setup.
Attach the power cord to the Defense Center and plug into a power source.3.
INSTALLATION
If your Defense Center has redundant power supplies, attach power cords to both power
supplies and plug them into separate power sources.
Turn on the Defense Center.4.
If you are using a keyboard and monitor to set up the Defense Center, continue with •
Conguring Network Setting Using a Script in the
Guide
If you are using a direct Ethernet connection to set up the Defense Center, conrm •
that the link LED is on for both the network interface on the local computer and the
management interface on the Defense Center. If the management interface and
network interface LEDs are not lit, try using a crossover cable. For more information,
see Cabling Inline Deployments on Copper Interfaces in the
Installation Guide
After you have congured network settings, make sure your Defense Center is connected 5.
to the protected management network with an Ethernet cable, and continue the initial
setup with Initial Setup Page: Defense Centers in the
Guide
