PA-1400 Series Front Panel
Table of Contents
Learn about the PA-1400 Series firewall front-panel components.
The following image shows the front panel of the PA-1410and PA-1420 firewalls and the table describes each front panel component.
Item | Component | Description |
---|---|---|
1 | Ethernet ports 1 through 12 | Twelve RJ-45 ports for network traffic.The link speed and link duplex are auto-negotiate only. PA-1410
PA-1420
On both the PA-1410 and PA-1420, port 1 is a Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) port. The ZTP port can be used to automate the on-boarding of new firewalls to a Panorama management server. To use the ZTP port, read how to boot the firewall in ZTP mode. Onboth the PA-1410 and PA-1420, ports 9, 10, 11, and 12 are PowerOver Ethernet (PoE) ports. They can be configured to transfer powerto a connected device. Refer to the PAN-OS Networking Admin Guide forPoE configuration information. |
2 | SFP+ ports 13 through 22 | Ten SFP (1Gbps) or SFP+ (10Gbps) ports based onthe installed transceiver. PA-1410
PA-1420
The SFPports can be remapped as HA-1 ports via PAN-OS or Panorama. These remappedHA-1 ports offer high availability connectivity over a longer distancethan what is permitted by the HA1-A and HA1-B ports listed below. |
3 | HSCI port | One SFP+ (10Gbps) port (supports both SFP andSFP+ transceivers or cables). Use this port to connect twoPA-1400 Series firewalls in a high availability (HA) configurationas follows:
TheHSCI ports must be connected directly between the two firewallsin the HA configuration (without a switch or router between them).When directly connecting the HSCI ports between two PA-1400 Seriesfirewalls that are physically located near each other, Palo AltoNetworks recommends that you use a passive SFP+ cable. Forinstallations where the two firewalls are not near each other andyou cannot use a passive SFP+ cable, use a standard SFP+ transceiverand the appropriate cable length. |
4 | HA1-A and HA1-B ports | Two RJ-45 10Mbps/100Mbps/1000Mbps ports forhigh availability (HA) control. If the firewall dataplanerestarts due to a failure or manual restart, the HA1-B link will alsorestart. If this occurs and the HA1-A link is not connected andconfigured, then a split brain condition occurs. Therefore, we recommendthat you connect and configure the HA1-A ports and the HA1-B portsto provide redundancy and to avoid split brain issues. |
5 | MGT port | Use this Ethernet 10Mbps/100Mbps/1000Mbps portto access the management web interface and perform administrativetasks. The firewall also uses this port for management services,such as retrieving licenses and updating threat and application signatures. The Management port cannot be used to configure HA1 or HA1 backup. You must use the dedicated HA1-A and HA1-B ports. |
6 | CONSOLE port (RJ-45) | Use this port to connect a management computerto the firewall using a 9-pin serial-to-RJ-45 cable and terminalemulation software. The console connection provides accessto firewall boot messages, the Maintenance Recovery Tool (MRT),and the command line interface (CLI). If your managementcomputer does not have a serial port, use a USB-to-serial converter. Usethe following settings to configure your terminal emulation softwareto connect to the console port:
|
7 | USB port | A USB port that accepts a USB flash drivewith a bootstrap bundle (PAN-OS configuration). Bootstrappingspeeds up the process of configuring and licensing the firewallto make it operational on the network with or without internet access. |
8 | CONSOLE port (Micro USB) | Use this port to connect a management computerto the firewall using a standard Type-A USB-to-micro USB cable. Theconsole connection provides access to firewall boot messages, theMaintenance Recovery Tool (MRT), and the command line interface (CLI). Refer to the Micro USB Console Port page for more information and to download the Windows driver or to learn how to connect from a Mac or Linux computer. |
9 | LED status indicators | Nine LEDs that indicate the status of the firewallhardware components (see Interpret the PA-1400 Series Status LEDs). |
