Before You Begin
Product Safety Warnings
To avoid personal injury or death for yourself and others and to avoid damage to your Palo Alto
Networks hardware, be sure you understand and prepare for the following warnings before you
install or service the hardware. You will also see warning messages throughout the hardware
reference where potenal hazards exist.
All Palo Alto Networks products with laser-based opcal interfaces comply with 21 CFR
1040.10 and 1040.11.
The following safety warnings apply to all Palo Alto Networks firewalls and appliances, unless a
specific hardware model is specified.
• When installing or servicing a Palo Alto Networks firewall or appliance hardware component
that has exposed circuits, ensure that you wear an electrostac discharge (ESD) strap. Before
handling the component, make sure the metal contact on the wrist strap is touching your skin
and that the other end of the strap is connected to earth ground.
French Translaon: Lorsque vous installez ou que vous intervenez sur un composant matériel
de pare-feu ou de disposif Palo Alto Networks qui présente des circuits exposés, veillez
à porter un bracelet anstaque. Avant de manipuler le composant, vérifiez que le contact
métallique du bracelet anstaque est en contact avec votre peau et que l’autre extrémité du
bracelet est raccordée à la terre.
• Use grounded and shielded Ethernet cables to ensure agency compliance with electromagnec
compliance (EMC) regulaons.
French Translaon: Des câbles Ethernet blindés reliés à la terre doivent être ulisés pour
garanr la conformité de l'organisme aux émissions électromagnéques (CEM).
• (ION 7000 and ION 9000 only) At least two people are recommended for unpacking, handling,
and relocang the heavier firewalls.
• Do not connect a supply voltage that exceeds the input range of the firewall or appliance. For
details on the electrical range, refer to electrical specificaons in the hardware reference for
your firewall or appliance.
French Translaon: Veillez à ce que la tension d’alimentaon ne dépasse pas la plage d’entrée
du pare-feu ou du disposif. Pour plus d’informaons sur la mesure électrique, consulter la
rubrique des caractérisques électriques dans la documentaon de votre matériel de pare-feu
ou votre disposif.
• Do not replace a baery with an incorrect baery type; doing so can cause the replacement
baery to explode. Dispose of used baeries according to local regulaons.
French Translaon: Ne remplacez pas la baerie par une baerie de type non adapté, cee
dernière risquerait d’exploser. Meez au rebut les baeries usagées conformément aux
instrucons.
• I/O ports are intended for intra-building connecons only and not intended for OSP (Outside
Plant) connecons or any network connecons subject to external voltage surge events.

Before You Begin
•(All Palo Alto Networks appliances with two or more
power supplies)
Cauon: Shock hazard
Disconnect all power cords (AC or DC) from the power
inputs to fully de-energize the hardware.
French Translaon: (Tous les appareils Palo Alto
Networks avec au moins deux sources d’alimentaon)
Débranchez tous les cordons d’alimentaon (c.a. ou
c.c.) des entrées d’alimentaon et meez le matériel
hors tension.

ION 7000 Overview
ION 7000
Prisma SD-WAN Instant-On Network (ION) 7000, designed for the data center, enables you to
create secure SD-WAN fabric across branches and data centers. It is designed to install seamlessly
in the data center by peering with adjacent data center devices using tradional, standard-based
roung protocols. Deploy the ION 7000 in an off-path model enabling elasc, non-disrupve
scale-out and high availability (HA).
The ION 7000:
• Establishes connecvity with the data center network and exchanges roung informaon.
• Terminates virtual private networks (VPNs) for all Prisma SD-WAN deployed branch sites.
• Maintains path symmetry and ensures the best path for an applicaon.
• Enables applicaon Service Level Agreements (SLAs) and path selecon in conjuncon with
branch with ION 3000 devices.
