Warnings and cautions
Read and follow these safety warnings when you install the Advanced Threat Defense Appliance. Failure to
observe these safety warnings could result in serious physical injury.
Advanced Threat Defense Appliance power on/o — the push-button on/o power switch on the front panel of
the Advanced Threat Defense Appliance does not turn o the AC power. To remove AC power from the Advanced
Threat Defense Appliance, you must unplug the AC power cord from either the power supply or wall outlet for
both the power supplies. If you press the push-button on/o power switch on the front panel of the Advanced
Threat Defense Appliance while the appliance is running, it reboots. If you want to power o the appliance, use
CLI command — shutdown, after the system halts press the power button until the appliance powers o.
The power supplies in your system might produce high voltages and energy hazards, which can cause bodily
harm. Only trained service technicians are authorized to remove the covers and access any of the components
inside the system.
Hazardous conditions — devices and cables: Hazardous electrical conditions might be present on power,
telephone, and communication cables. Turn o the Advanced Threat Defense Appliance and disconnect
telecommunications systems, networks, modems, and both the power cords attached to the Advanced Threat
Defense Appliance before opening it. Otherwise, personal injury or equipment damage can result.
Avoid injury — lifting the Advanced Threat Defense Appliance and attaching it to the rack is a two-person job.
This equipment is intended to be grounded. Ensure that the host is connected to earth ground during normal
use.
Do not remove the outer shell of the Advanced Threat Defense Appliance. Doing so invalidates your warranty.
Do not operate the system unless all cards, faceplates, front covers, and rear covers are in place. Blank faceplates
and cover panels prevent exposure to hazardous voltages and currents inside the chassis, contain
electromagnetic interference (EMI) that might disrupt other equipment and direct the ow of cooling air through
the chassis.
To avoid electric shock, do not connect safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits to telephone-network voltage (TNV)
circuits. LAN ports contain SELV circuits, and WAN ports contain TNV circuits. Some LAN and WAN ports both use
RJ-45 connectors. Use caution when connecting cables.
Usage restrictions
The following restrictions apply to the use and operation of Advanced Threat Defense Appliance:
•You should not remove the outer shell of the Advanced Threat Defense Appliance. Doing so invalidates your
warranty.
•The Advanced Threat Defense Appliance is not a general purpose server.
•McAfee prohibits the use of Advanced Threat Defense Appliance for anything other than operating the
Advanced Threat Defense solution.
•McAfee prohibits the
modication or installation of any hardware or software on the Advanced Threat
Defense Appliance that is not part of the normal operation of Advanced Threat Defense.

3Management port (NIC 1). This is the eth-0 interface. The set appliance and set mgmtport
commands apply to this interface. For example, when you use the set appliance ip command, the
corresponding IP address is assigned to this interface.
4NIC 2. This is the eth-1 interface. This interface is disabled by default.
• To enable or disable this interface, use the set intfport command. For example, set intfport
1 enable
• To assign the IP details to this interface use set intfport <eth 1, 2, or 3> ip <IPv4
address> <subnet mask>
For example, set intfport 1 ip 10.10.10.10 255.255.255.0
• You cannot assign the default gateway to this port. However, you can
congure a route on this
interface to route the trac to the desired gateway. To congure a route, use route add network
For example, route add network 10.10.10.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway
10.10.10.1 intfport 1. This command routes all
trac from the 10.10.10.0 command to
10.10.10.1 through NIC 2 (eth-1).
5NIC 3. This is the eth-2 interface. The note described for NIC 2 applies to this interface as well.
6NIC 4. This is the eth-3 interface. The note described for NIC 2 applies to this interface as well.
