The Log Forwarding Card (LFC) is required for
chassis operation and the same LFC model is used in both the PA-7050 and PA-7080
firewalls. On a PA-7050 firewall, you must install the LFC in slot 8 and on the
PA-7080 firewall, you must install the LPC in slot 7. You cannot install an LFC into
any other slot.

After loosening the thumb screws, you must pull the inner lever toward you to unlock the outer lever from the chassis and then pull the outer lever to release the card from the chassis. When installing the card, when you push the outer lever in, it will lock the inner lever.The left and right inner levers have a micro-switch that will power off the card as soon as they are pulled to unlock the outer lever.Tighten the thumb screws on each side of the LFC to secure it to the chassis.
