FCC Class A
This equipment has been tested and found to comply
with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference when
the equipment is operated in a commercial environment.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. Operation
of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause
harmful interference in which case the user will be required
to correct the interference at his own expense.
No part of this manual may be reproduced, copied,
translated or transmitted in any form or by any means

manufacturer. Information provided in this manual is
intended to be accurate and reliable. However, the original
manufacturer assumes no responsibility for its use, nor for
any infringements upon the rights of third parties that
may result from such use.
Designed for addressing the demand of network and
server acceleration for security, TCP, content processing,
and compression, the MR-730 features Cavium’s
Plus CN5230-700-SCP
processors.
The MR-730 platforms are server grade equipment with
x GbE/SFP combo ports for WAN and LAN connections, one
USB ports, 2 management port for security monitoring
services such as SNMP, and one Mini-PCIe port for Wi-Fi or
Wimax wireless connection or other optional capabilities.
Powered by the Cavium’s highly Market-leading
performance of 2 to 4-Core MIPS64-Based SoCs Octeon
family processors, these processors provide up to 8 Mpps
64B IP forwarding and 10+ Gbps for TCP, IPsec, SSL, and
KASUMI calculations.
Along with other Lanner Appliances, the MR-730 features
redundant power supplies and hot swappable fans for easy
servicability.
The Quick Start Guide will takes you through the basic
steps necessary to install your MR-730 System.
Please refer to the chart below for a summary of the

F1 F2 System Panel: LCD System Panel with Interactive Keypad
The LCD System Panel can be programmed to display operating status and configuration information. For more details
or sample programming code, refer to the patch file.
F2 Reset Switch
The reset switch can be used to reboot the system without turning off the power.
F3 Power/Status/HDD LED
Power LED (Green):
Green indicates that the system is powered on.
Status LED (Green/amber):
This LED is programmable. You could program it to display the operating status with the behavior like the following:
If the LED is green, it indicates that the system’s operational state is normal. If it is amber, it indicates that the system is
malfunctioning. For sample code, refer to the patch file.
Storage LED (Yellow):
It is an LED indicator for the CompactFlash card and hard disk. If it is flashing, it indicates data access activities.
F4 Console Port
By using suitable rollover cable (also known as console cable), you can connect to a computer terminal for diagnostic or
configuration purpose. Default terminal configuration parameters: 115200 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1stop bit, and no
flow control.
F5 USB 2.0 Port
It connects to any USB devices, for example, a flash drive.
F6 Two FastEthernet/Management Port
These two dedicated FastEthernet ports can be configured as the management port of the system and used only for
traffic management. Similar to the Console port, but the Management port accepts only incoming traffic to the system.
The management port is provided by Realtek RTL8201E controller.
F7 4 Gigabit Ethernet Ports with 2 pair Bypass
The four Gigabit Ethernet ports are provided by Broadcom BCM5482S Dual-Port Gb Transceiver through the SGMII
interface. They are capable of LAN bypass (LAN2-LAN3 pair and LAN4-LAN5 pair) with low power, triple speed (10BASE-T,
100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T) support and has extremely low EMI emissions.
Speed LED: If the LED is amber, it indicates that the connection speed is 1000Mbps. If the LED is green, it indicates that
the connection speed is 100Mbps. And if it is off, it indicates that the speed is 10Mbps.
Link/ACT LED (green): If the LED is on, it indicates that the port is linked. If it blinks, it indicates there is traffic.

Preparing the Hardware Installation
To access some components and perform certain service
procedures, you must perform the following procedures
first.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury,
electric shock, or damage to the equipment,
detach the power cord to remove power from the
server. The Power On/Standby button (if there is
one) does not completely shut off system power.
Portions of the power supply and some internal
circuitry remain active until AC power is removed.
Power off the MR-730 and remove the power cord 1.
from the system.
Unscrew the 3 threaded screws from the two sides and 2.
2 screws from the rear of the top cover of the MR-730
System.

MR-730 provides one CompactFlash slot. Follow the
procedures bellow to install a CompactFlash card.
Align CompactFlash card and the card slot with the 1.
arrow pointing toward the connector.
Push the card to insert into the connector.2.
Accessing the CompactFlash card3.

# mount /dev/cfa1 /mnt/
# ls /mnt/
To put files on the CF Card, use the following procedures:
Connect the CF card. It will usually be assigned as the following 1.
device:
/dev/cfa1
Mount the CF le system. 2.
#mount /dev/cfa1 /mnt/
Copy program le(s) to CF. 3.
#cp hello.txt /mnt/

Installing the Hard Disk
The system can accommodate two 2.5” Serial-ATA disks.
Follow these steps to install a hard disk into the MR-730:
Unscrew the 4 screws on the hard disk tray to take out 1.
the hard disk tray from the system.
Place hard disk on the hard disk tray and align the holes 2.
of the hard disk with the mounting holes of the tray.
Secure the hard disk with 4 mounting screws on the 3.
hard disk tray.
Connect the Serial-ATA power and drive cables to the 4.
hard disk’s power and drive connectors respectively.
Plug the Serial-ATA drive cable to the Serial-ATA 5.
Connector on the main board.
Plug the Serial-ATA power cable to the Serial-ATA 6.
Power Connector on the main board.
Repeat steps 2 to 6 for installing a second disk if there 7.
is one.
Put the hard disk tray with the installed hard disk back 8.
and fasten it to the system with the mounting screws.
All DIMMs installed must have the same 1.
SDRAM standard (DDR2
533/667/800 MHz
, ECC
Registered). Do not install DIMMs supporting
different speeds.
For DDR2 533/667 MHz memory, the 2.
motherboard can support a maximum of 4 GB in
total.
For DDR2 800 MHz memory, the motherboard 3.
can support up to a maximum 2 GB in total.
