Front Panel Connectors
There are no connectors on the front panel of the SG-9100.
NOTE Since the SG-9100 has only 2 USB ports on the read of the
server, these ports are designated for bypass unit connectivity
only. They cannot be used for anything else (such as
keyboard/mouse), even if there is no bypass unit being
connected to any of the ports. This means that the initial IP
configurations will have to be done using the TSM. After that
everything can be done using SSH.

Chapter 3: Bypass
External Bypass Unit

The SG-9100 operates with an external Bypass Unit. The Bypass Unit is a mission-
critical subsystem designed to ensure network connectivity at all times. The Bypass
mechanism provides "connectivity insurance" in the event of a subsystems failure. Each
Allot Bypass unit features low insertion loss (< 1dB) in both Normal mode and Bypass
mode and fast switching time (< 10mSec) between modes. A Service Gateway unit
Network ports must be connected to the appropriate External Bypass Unit. This is to
ensure continuous service in the event of failure. The Service Gateway should be
ordered with appropriate Bypass Units considering total number of ports that need
bypass protection and Fiber interface Type (Multi-Mode / Single-Mode).
A single HD 16 Fiber Bypass unit supports up to 8 links (16 ports) and an HD 8 Fiber
Bypass Unit supports up to 4 links (8 ports). In terms of Management, all Bypass units
are connected to the SG-9100 via a single USB cable.
NOTE If you have mix of Single-Mode and Multi-Mode optical
interfaces in a single SG-9100 system, then you will need to
split them into groups and connect them to appropriate
Bypass according to interface type. i.e. all Single-Mode ports
(LR) should be connected to Single-Mode Bypass SG-BP-EXT-
16P-SM-A or SG-BP-EXT-8P-SM-A, All Multi-Mode ports (SR)
should be connected to Multi-Mode Bypass SG-BP-EXT-16P-
MM-A or SG-BP-EXT-8P-MM-A.
ATTENTION Ports that are used for steering should not be routed through
Bypass.
The following bypass units are supported by the SG-9100:

Chapter 4: Power Connectivity Planning
This chapter is to be used in planning the power requirements and resources for the SG-
9100 system. Topics which are covered include:
 AC Power Source Requirements
 AC Cabling Requirements and Overcurrent Protection
Power Source Requirements

Installation of this equipment must comply with local and regional electrical regulations
governing the installation of information technology equipment by licensed electricians.
This equipment is designed to operate in installations covered by NFPA 70, 1999
Edition (National Electric Code) and NFPA-75, 1992 (code for Protection of Electronic
Computer/Data Processing Equipment).
WARNING To reduce the risk of personal injury, fire, or damage to the
equipment, do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that
provides power to the rack. Consult the electrical authority
having jurisdiction over wiring and installation requirements of
your facility.
CAUTION Protect the server from power fluctuations and temporary
interruptions with a regulating uninterruptible power supply.
This device protects the hardware from damage caused by
power surges and voltage spikes and keeps the system in
operation during a power failure.
When installing more than one Service Gateway, you may need to use additional power
distribution devices to safely provide power to all devices. Observe the following
guidelines:
 Balance the power load between available AC supply branch circuits.
 Do not allow the overall system AC current load to exceed 80% of the branch
circuit AC current rating.
 Do not use common power outlet strips for this equipment.
 Provide a separate electrical circuit for the Service Gateway.

Electrical Grounding Requirements

The server must be grounded properly for proper operation and safety. In the United
States, you must install the equipment in accordance with NFPA 70, 1999 Edition
(National Electric Code), Article 250, as well as any local and regional building codes.
In Canada, you must install the equipment in accordance with Canadian Standards
Association, CSA C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code. In all other countries, you must
install the equipment in accordance with any regional or national electrical wiring
codes, such as the International Electro technical Commission (IEC) Code 364, parts 1
through 7. Furthermore, you must be sure that all power distribution devices used in the
installation, such as branch wiring and receptacles, are listed or certified grounding-type
devices.
Because of the high ground-leakage currents associated with multiple servers connected
to the same power source, Allot recommends the use of a PDU that is either permanently
wired to the building’s branch circuit or includes a non detachable cord that is wired to
an industrial-style plug. NEMA locking-style plugs or those complying with IEC 60309
are considered suitable for this purpose. Using common power outlet strips for the server
is not recommended.

Mounting the SG-9100

Space and Airflow Requirements
To allow for servicing and adequate airflow, observe the following space and airflow
requirements when deciding where to install a rack:
 Leave a minimum clearance of 63.5 cm (25 in) in front of the rack.
 Leave a minimum clearance of 76.2 cm (30 in) behind the rack.
 Leave a minimum clearance of 121.9 cm (48 in) from the back of the rack to the
back of another rack or row of racks.
The SG-9100 draws in cool air through the front door and expel warm air through the
rear door. Therefore, the front and rear rack doors must be adequately ventilated to allow
ambient room air to enter the cabinet, and the rear door must be adequately ventilated to
allow the warm air to escape from the cabinet.
When vertical space in the rack is not filled by a server or rack component, the gaps
between the components cause changes in airflow through the rack and across the
servers. Cover all gaps with blanking panels to maintain proper airflow.
Rack Mounting the Service Gateway

WARNING To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the
equipment, be sure that:
The leveling jacks are extended to the floor.
The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks.
The stabilizing feet are attached to the rack if it is a single-rack
installation.
The racks are coupled together in multiple-rack installations.

Only one component is extended at a time. A rack may become

unstable if more than one component is extended for any
reason.
AVERTISSEMENT Pour limiter les risques de blessure ou de détérioration du
matériel, vérifiez les points suivants :
Les pieds de mise à niveau doivent être abaissés jusqu'au sol.
Les pieds de mise à niveau supportent tout le poids du rack.
Les pieds de stabilisation sont fixés au rack dans le cas d'une

configuration à un seul rack.
Les racks doivent être couplés, en cas d'installation de

plusieurs racks.
Un seul élément à la fois doit être extrait. La stabilité du rack

peut être compromise si vous retirez plusieurs composants,
pour quelque raison que ce soit.
CAUTION Always plan the rack installation so that the heaviest item is on
the bottom of the rack. Install the heaviest item first, and
continue to populate the rack from the bottom to the top.
Install the server into the rack.

Connect the power cord to the rear of the server.
WARNING To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or damage to the
equipment, do not plug telephone or telecommunications
connectors into RJ-45 connectors.
AVERTISSEMENT Pour limiter les risques d'électrocution, d'incendie ou de
détérioration du matériel, évitez de brancher des connecteurs
de téléphone ou de télécommunication aux connecteurs RJ-45.
Connect the power cord to the AC power source.

WARNING To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the
equipment:
Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding
plug is an important safety feature.
Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet
that is easily accessible at all times.
Unplug the power cord from the power supply to disconnect
power to the equipment.
Do not route the power cord where it can be walked on or
pinched by items placed against it. Pay particular attention to
the plug, electrical outlet, and the point where the cord extends
from the server.
AVERTISSEMENT Pour limiter les risques d'électrocution ou de détérioration du

matériel :
Ne désactivez pas la prise de terre du cordon d'alimentation. Il

s'agit d'une protection importante.
Branchez le cordon d'alimentation dans une prise électrique

mise à la terre et facilement accessible à tout moment.
Débranchez le cordon d'alimentation du bloc d'alimentation

pour déconnecter le matériel de toute source d'alimentation.
Acheminez le cordon d'alimentation en dehors des lieux de

passage et loin de tout objet pouvant le comprimer ou le
pincer. Faites particulièrement attention à la fiche, à la prise
secteur et au point de sortie du cordon sur le serveur.

Chapter 6: Deploying the SG-9100
Connecting Network Traffic

The SG-9100 operates with an external Bypass Units. The Bypass Unit is a mission-
critical subsystem designed to ensure network connectivity at all times. The Bypass
mechanism provides ‘connectivity insurance’ in the event of a subsystems failure.
Bypass Units are connected to the SG-9100 by a series of leads and cables.
Use the following procedure when connecting to the Network via the Bypass Unit.
1. Before installation make sure there is traffic flow in the location where you are
about to install the In-line platform.
2. Connect the bypass to the Network, connecting to the Router and Switch via the
Network ports for each Link.
3. Connect the In-line platform to the bypass with ethernet cables using the System
ports for each Link. Connect the Bypass management cable to the Primary port
on the Bypass and the USB port on the SG-9100. Keep the In-line platform
turned off while connecting the cables.
NOTE When the In-line platform is powered on it validates that it is
connected to a bypass. If you attempt to power on an In-line
platform that is not connected to a Bypass, boot will fail.
4. Make sure all cables are secure.

5. Power up the In-line platform and verify the traffic flow.
See Chapter 3: Bypass on page 3-1 for details concerning connecting HD 8 and HD 16
Bypass units to the SG-9100 and the network.
CAUTION The bypass cable should only be connected/disconnected
when the system is powered down.

Configuring Active Redundancy

Active redundancy is recommended for network topologies where at least two network
links are active in load-balancing mode. It requires two Service Gateway installations
and typically, no bypass units.
In the Active Redundancy configuration, a Service Gateway duplicates each link’s
traffic to the other Service Gateway. Both Service Gateways are active.
In the event that one of the links fails due to router, switch or line malfunction, the
network redundancy mechanism (for example, spanning tree) will ensure that traffic is
routed or switched via the other link and managed by the second Service Gateway.
Since both Service Gateways maintain a constant view of the two links, there will be no
loss of flow's state and other information required for correct shaping and application
classification.
In the Active Redundancy configuration, the two Service Gateways should share the
same policy configuration.
NOTE Users should be aware that a Service Gateway working in Active
Redundancy mode duplicates all traffic passing through it.
Therefore, the overall throughput of each Service Gateway in Active
Redundancy will be half of the throughput enabled.

Physical Connections
L1 and L2 on each NIC card are used to pass actual traffic – these interfaces will be
used to connect the Service Gateway to the corresponding switches or routers.
L3 and L4 are used to duplicate traffic and pass it to the second Service Gateway so
must be connected to L3 and L4 on the same number NIC card being used by the
second Service Gateway. Traffic that is passed between Service Gateways is only used
for monitoring and classification purposes.
All other links work in the same way, with L1 and L2 on a NIC card passing actual
traffic and L3 and L4 duplicating the traffic and so on.
NOTE If the Service Gateway Active Redundancy mechanism is
implemented a bypass unit should not be used. This ensures that
the network is made aware of any failure and is able to smoothly
transfer traffic to the secondary link.

Powering Up the SG-9100

NOTE It is recommended to connect the two power line feeds to
separate power sources to have full power redundancy.
Press the Power On/Standby button. The Power LED will flash
green during the boot up process and then become steady green
when the system is ready.
During the initial boot it is possible to modify the server
configuration ROM default settings, press the F9 key in the POST
screen to enter the UEFI System Utilities screen. By default, the
System Utilities menus are in the English language.
Initial Configuration
Accessing the SG-9100 via Physical Ports
An external monitor may be connected to the SG-9100 via the MONITOR port on the
rear of the appliance.
Accessing the SG-9100 via the TSM

The ThinkServer System Manager (TSM) is provided with every SG-9100 appliance
that is shipped from Allot.
The module enables an administrator to connect remotely to the SG-9100 as if
connecting locally via a console connection.
NOTE Since the SG-9100 has only 2 USB ports on the read of the
server, these ports are designated for bypass unit connectivity
only. They cannot be used for anything else (such as
keyboard/mouse), even if there is no bypass unit being
connected to any of the ports. This means that the initial IP
configurations will have to be done using the TSM. After that
everything can be done using SSH.
Configuring TSM Network Settings

The default details of the TSM are as follows:
 Default User Name: lenovo
 Default Password: len0vO (where the first 0 is not “o” but “zero” and the
last O is a capital letter.)
To configure the network settings of the TSM, follow the steps below:

Connect an external monitor via the monitor and a

keyboard/mouse via the rear USB ports.
Turn on the SG-9100. Press F1 as soon as you see the Lenovo logo
screen.
On the following screen select TSM Settings
Figure 6-3 – System Information

On System Configuration screen select TSM Network Settings.
Figure 6-4 – TSM Settings

Define network parameters for the TSM by entering relevant

values for IP Address, Subnet mask and Gateway IP.
Press F10 to save network settings and reset. Wait while TSM
resets.
After TSM network parameters are set and TSM management port
is connected to a network, the rear USB ports may be used for
Bypass management only and the system may be controlled
remotely via web interface.
Go to the PC that you will be accessing TSM from remotely and
open the Java Control Panel (Start > Control Panel > Java).
Move to the Security tab.
Click Edit Site List.
The Exception Site List appears.
Click Add and type in the SG-9100 URL, as follows:

http://<IP OF SG>
Click OK to add the SG-9100 to the allowed hosts list.
Open a web browser. In the address field, type, type the IP address
or host name of the TSM to which you want to connect.
Enter User ID and Password
You will see the TSM User Interface, with the default “System
Status” in view which provides important information regarding
system health such as temperature and power levels, as seen
below:

Figure 6-5: TSM System Status Screen

Click on the arrow on the right of the screen to access the menu
options if desired.
Click the Launch button to open the Remote Console opens where
you can log in to the Allot CLI for device configuration.
Figure 6-6: Remote Console

Configuring the SG-9100
After entering the Remote Console, enter sysadmin for the login
and sysadmin for the password.
Use the go config ips command to configure the IP address,
gateway IP, DNS and NTP servers for the SG-9100.
Command: go config ips
Usage: go config ips <-OPTION> <VALUE>...
Options:
-h Hostname set host name of NE
-d Domain set domain name of NE
-g <type:ip> set gateway IP address
-dns <dns1:dns2>|none set DNS IP addresses
-ts <ntp1:ntp2:ntp3>|none set NTP server IP addresses
-ip <type:ip:mask[:vlan]> set IP/netmask/VLAN ID
Examples:
To set the IP address of the SG-9100:

sysadmin@host-prc:~#: go config ips -ip <SG IP ADDRESS>:<MASK>
To set the gateway IP:

sysadmin@host-prc:~$ go config ips -g <GATEWAY IP ADDRESS>
To set the DNS server:

sysadmin@host-prc:~$ go config ips -dns <DNS IP ADDRESS>
To set the NTP server:

sysadmin@host-prc:~$ go config ips -ts <NTP IP ADDRESS>
Working with 1G Copper Interfaces
The use of 1G Copper transceivers must be enabled or disabled via CLI. The 1G
interfaces must be set to auto negotiation. In addition Copper interfaces may only use
the 8 Port Bypass units, restricting the number of ports that may be used on the SG-
9100.
To enable 1G Copper interfaces:

After logging into the SG-9100, enter the following CLI

command:
copperPortsCfg.sh -c enable
Reboot the SG-9100 by entering the following command:
ac_reboot
After the SG-9100 has rebooted, configure the 1G Copper ports as
auto/auto using the following command:
go config nic <nic's label>:auto:auto
For example, go config nic P1.L1:auto:auto
To disable 1G Copper interfaces:

After logging into the SG-9100, enter the following CLI
command:
copperPortsCfg.sh -c disable
Reboot the SG-9100 by entering the following command:
ac_reboot
Connecting Management Traffic
The user is able to select one of two different pairs of 2 ports as the management ports.
There are two available pairs:
 M1 & M2 - 2 RJ45 copper 1G ports
 M3 & M4 - 2 SFP+ that can accommodate any type of SFP interface (1G/10G)
Pair selection is done by configuring one of the pair ports to act as the management
port. The other port in the pair is automatically set as the second port.
The management port is selected and configured using the following CLI command:
go config nic <Label>:<Mode>:<Speed>:<FailureAction>:<PortUsage>
Acceptable Labels are: M1, M2, M3 or M4
Acceptable values for Mode are: full
Acceptable values for Speed are: 10000
Acceptable values for Failure Action are: none
Acceptable values for Port Usage are: management
For example:
go config nic M3:full:10000:none:management
In this example M3 is set as the primary management port & M4 is set as the redundant
port.
NOTE Changing the management ports doesn't change the

management IP. The IP is moved to the selected ports.
Changing the AOS Passwords

Allot provides end-users with CLI access to the system via a user privilege called
“sysadmin”. The sysadmin user can access all of the CLI commands outlined in
Chapter 6 below. The default password for the sysadmin user is sysadmin.

In addition, each Service Gateway has an “admin” password, which is used to enable
secure communication between the NetXplorer and the SG-9100. Whenever a
NetXplorer Operator wishes to add a new In-line Platform to the NetXplorer the admin
password of that In-line Platform must be entered. In addition, no policy changes can be
saved without the correct admin password. The default admin password is allot.
NOTE Allot STRONGLY recommends that the default passwords are
changed to ensure a minimum level of security.
To change the sysadmin password:

Log into the SG-9100 via the iLO Remote Console.
Enter sysadmin for the login and the sysadmin password (default
is sysadmin), and then press <Enter>.
Enter passwd and then press <Enter>.
Enter a new password and press <Enter>. The password must be
between 5 and 8 characters. You can use a combination of upper
and lower case letters and numbers.
Re-enter the new password and press <Enter>.
TIP You can further protect access to the Service Gateway by
limiting the hosts that are allowed to manage the unit. For
more information see the NetXplorer Operation Guide.
To change the admin password:

Enter sysadmin for the login and the sysadmin password (default
is sysadmin), and then press <Enter>.
Enter change_admin_pass and then press <Enter> to run the
script to change the admin password.
Enter a new admin password and press <Enter>.
Re-enter the new password and press <Enter>.

Laser Safety Statutory Warning

All personnel involved in Equipment installation, operation, and maintenance must be
aware that laser radiation is invisible. Therefore, although protective devices generally
prevent direct exposure to the beam, personnel must strictly observe the
applicable safety precautions and, in particular, must avoid staring into optical
connectors, either directly or using optical instruments.
Remember that observing safety precautions is not a matter of personal choice:
ignoring safety puts all the people within line of sight in danger!
Training for Laser Safety

Personnel must be trained for safety before being authorized to operate, install, and/or
maintain laser products. The IEC 60825 standards require organizations to appoint a
laser safety officer who is responsible for training personnel, establishing safe
operational procedures, and supervising the implementation of these procedures during
routine work.
Untrained personnel must not be allowed to operate, install, and/or maintain laser
products.
Laser Device Operating Precautions

In addition to the general precautions described in this section, be sure to observe the
following warning when operating a product equipped with a laser device. Failure to
observe this warning could result in bodily injury and damage to equipment.

Warning: Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from the aperture of optical
ports when no fiber cable is connected. Avoid exposure and do not stare into
open apertures.
Advarsel: Der kan forekomme usynlige laserstråler fra de optiske portes åbninger,
når der ikke er tilsluttet et lyslederkabel. Undgå at blive udsat for disse stråler, og
kig ikke ind i åbninger.
Waarschuwing: Er kan onzichtbare laserstraling uit de opening van de optische
poorten komen wanneer er geen fiberkabel is aangesloten. Vermijd blootstelling
aan straling en kijk niet in de openingen.
Varoitus: Optisten porttien aukoista saattaa säteillä näkymätöntä lasersäteilyä
silloin, kun niissä ei ole kuitukaapeleita kiinni. Vältä altistumista ja älä tuijota näihin
avoimiin aukkoihin.
Attention: Un rayonnement laser invisible peut être émis à partir de l'ouverture
des ports optiques lorsque aucun câble à fibres optiques n'est connecté. Évitez
de vous y exposer et ne fixez pas les ouvertures.
Warnung: Wenn kein Faserkabel angeschlossen ist, können aus der Öffnung der
optischen Anschlüsse Laserstrahlen austreten. Vermeiden Sie Bestrahlungen und
schauen Sie nicht in diese Öffnungen.
Avvertenza: Le aperture delle porte ottiche possono emettere radiazioni laser
invisibili quando i cavi in fibra non sono collegati. Evitare lunghe esposizioni
davanti alle aperture.
Aviso: Podem ser emitidas radiações invisíveis de laser a partir das aberturas das
portas ópticas se não estiver ligado qualquer cabo de fibra óptica. Evitar a
exposição e não olhar directamente pelas aberturas aparentes.
Advertencia: Es posible que la radiación láser invisible se emita desde la apertura
de puertos ópticos cuando no haya ningún cable de fibra conectado. Evite la
exposición y no mire fijamente a las aberturas.
Varning: Osynlig laserstrålning kan spridas från öppningen på optiska portar om
ingen fiberoptikkabel är ansluten. Undvik exponering och stirra inte in i
öppningarna.
