About This Guide
This guide contains information you need to install and configure the IBM Ethernet
Appliance J36S quickly. For complete installation instructions, and instructions on
installing additional modules such as cards and power supplies, see the IBM Ethernet
Appliance J36S Hardware Guide at http://www.ibm.com/systems/support/networking .
WARNING: This guide contains a summary of safety warnings in “Safety Warnings”
on page 23. For a complete list of warnings for this device, including translations,
see the IBM Ethernet Appliance J36S Hardware Guide at
http://www.ibm.com/systems/support/networking .
The IBM Ethernet Appliance J36S is a high-performance, scalable, carrier-class security
device with multi-processor architecture. The Ethernet appliance has a capacity of
up to 30 gigabits per second (Gbps), full duplex. The device is 5 rack units (U) tall.
Nine devices can be stacked in a single floor-to-ceiling rack, for increased port density
per unit of floor space. The device provides 12 Common Form-factor Module (CFM)
slots that can be populated with up to 7 Services Processing Cards (SPCs), up to 3
Network Processing Cards (NPCs), and up to 6 I/O cards (IOCs). The device also has
one dedicated slot for the Switch Fabric Board (SFB), two slots for Routing Engines,
four slots for power supplies, and one slot for the fan tray and air filter.

By installing different combinations of IOCs and SPCs, you can tailor both the number
of network ports and the maximum security processing capacity to suit your network.
Table 1 on page 4 describes the minimum system configuration for the IBM Ethernet
Appliance J36S.

Three types of IOC interface cards are available:
■16-port copper Ethernet/Fast Ethernet/Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000 Mbps) card
■16-port SFP Gigabit Ethernet card
■2-port XFP 10 Gigabit Ethernet card
You can install any combination of IOC types in the Ethernet appliance.

IBM Ethernet Appliance J36S Getting Started Guide
The Ethernet appliance is shipped on a pallet covered by a cardboard cover. The
device chassis is bolted to the pallet. A printed copy of this document and an accessory
box are also included in the shipping container.
Step 1: Prepare the Site
Rack-Mounting Requirements
■You can install the device in a four-post rack or cabinet or a two-post rack.
CAUTION: When installing the device in a two-post rack, you must install the
mounting brackets in the chassis center holes as shown in Figure 3 on page 6.
■The rack rails must be spaced widely enough to accommodate the external
dimensions of the device chassis: 8.75 in. (22.2 cm) high, 25.5 in. (64.8 cm)
deep, and 17.5 in. (44.5 cm) wide. The outer edges of the mounting brackets
extend the width to 19 in. (48.3 cm).
■The rack must be strong enough to support the weight of the fully configured
device, up to 115.7 lb (52.6 kg). If you stack eight fully configured devices in one
rack, it must be capable of supporting up to 926 lb (421 kg).
■For service personnel to service the device, there must be adequate space at the
front and back of the device. Allow at least 30 in. (76.2 cm) in front of the device
and 24 in. (61 cm) behind the device.
■The rack or cabinet must have an adequate supply of cooling air.
■Ensure that the cabinet allows the chassis hot exhaust air to exit the cabinet
without recirculating into the device.
■The device must be installed in a rack that is secured to the building structure.
■The device should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in
the rack.
■When mounting the device in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom
to the top with the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.
Required Tools
To unpack the Ethernet appliance and prepare for installation, you need the following
tools:
■A mechanical lift—recommended
■Phillips (+) screwdrivers, numbers 1 and 2
■1/2-in. or 13-mm open-end or socket wrench to remove bracket bolts from the
shipping pallet
■Electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap (provided)
Step 1: Prepare the Site ■5
Step 1: Prepare the Site
Step 2: Install the Mounting Hardware
The specific mounting hardware required depends on the type of rack being used.
Use the appropriate procedure steps to install the mounting hardware for your
situation.
To install the mounting hardware:
1. Locate the rack mount brackets in the accessory kit.
2. Use the screws provided to secure the rack mount brackets to the sides of the
chassis:
■For a two-post rack, mount the brackets at the mid-mount holes as shown
in Figure 3 on page 6.
■For a four-post rack, mount the brackets near the front edge of the chassis
as shown in Figure 4 on page 6.

3. For installation in a four-post rack or a cabinet, install the support shelf on the
rear posts as shown in Figure 5 on page 7.

Step 3: Install the Device
Because of the device's size and weight, we recommend you install the device using
a mechanical lift. The procedure for installing the device depends on whether you
use a mechanical lift:

■Install the Device Without a Mechanical Lift on page 10
Install the Device Using a Lift
1. Ensure the rack is in its permanent location and is secured to the building. Ensure
that the installation site allows adequate clearance for both airflow and
maintenance. For details, see the IBM Ethernet Appliance J36S Hardware Guide.
2. Load the device onto the lift, making sure it rests securely on the lift platform
(see Figure 6 on page 8).
Step 3: Install the Device ■7

3. Using the lift, position the device in the rack:
■For two-post rack mounting, align the bottom hole in each mounting bracket
with a hole in each rack rail.
■For four-post rack or cabinet mounting, position the device so that the bottom
rear edge of the chassis rests on the support shelf you installed earlier as
shown in Figure 5 on page 7.
4. Install a mounting screw into each of the two aligned holes as shown in Figure
7 on page 9 (two-post rack) or Figure 8 on page 9 (four-post rack). Use a
number-2 Phillips screwdriver to tighten the screws.
8■Step 3: Install the Device

Figure 8: Installing the Device in a Four-Post Rack
5. Install the remaining screws in each mounting bracket.
6. Move the lift away from the rack.
7. Visually inspect the alignment of the device. If the device is installed properly in
the rack, all the mounting screws on one side of the rack should be aligned with
the mounting screws on the opposite side, and the device should be level.
Step 3: Install the Device ■9
Step 3: Install the Device
Install the Device Without a Mechanical Lift
To install the device without a mechanical lift:
■Remove Components on page 10
■Lift the Chassis into the Rack on page 12
■Reinstall Components on page 13
Remove Components
To make the Ethernet appliance light enough to install manually, you first remove
most components from the chassis as shown in Figure 9 on page 10 and Figure 10
on page 11.

■Switch Fabric Board (SFB)
■Routing Engine
■I/O Cards (IOCs)
■Network Processing Cards (NPCs)
■Services Processing Cards (SPCs)
