Management Port
|
One RJ-45 10 Mbps/100 Mbps/1000 Mbps port that is used to access the
management web interface and perform administrative tasks. The
firewall also uses this port for management services, such as
retrieving licenses and updating threat and application
signatures.

|
Console Port (RJ-45)
|
One RJ-45 port used to connect a management computer to the firewall
using a RJ-45 to USB cable and terminal emulation software.
The console connection provides access to firewall boot messages, the
Maintenance Recovery Tool (MRT), and the command line interface
(CLI).
Use the following settings to configure your terminal emulation
software to connect to the console port:

Console Port (USB-C)
|
One USB-C port used to connect a management computer to the firewall
using a standard USB-C cable.
The console connection provides access to firewall boot messages, the
Maintenance Recovery Tool (MRT), and the command line interface
(CLI).
Use the following settings to configure your terminal emulation
software to connect to the console port:

Ground Studs
|
Dual screw ground lugs used to connect the firewall to earth
ground.

Copper RJ-45 Ports
|
Twelve RJ-45 ports for 10 Mbps/100 Mbps/1000 Mbps network traffic.
You can set the link speed and duplex mode or choose
autonegotiate.
Ports 9, 10, 11, and 12 are Power over Ethernet (PoE) ports that can
each transfer up to 90W of power to a connected device. The maximum
PoE budget is 90W. Refer to the electrical
specifications for more PoE information.
You must use Shielded RJ-45
Ethernet cables in order to meet compliance requirements. |
|
6
|
USB-C Port
|
One USB-C port used for debugging and administration only. Use it to
bootstrap the firewall or perform self-service enhanced factory
reset (EFR).
Bootstrapping enables you to provision the firewall with a specific
PAN-OS configuration and then license it and make it operational on
your network.
EFR provides remediation of a compromised or potentially compromised
firewall to initiate a complete cleanup of the device.

|
BATT- and IGN+ Input
|
A connector used to enable Vehicle Ignition Monitoring System
(VIMS) when you connect a cable between this input and a
vehicle's ignition circuitry.
This port is only active when it detects an
AMPSU (Automotive Power Supply Unit). |
|
