1-G Network Module With Hardware Bypass - Cisco Firepower 4100 Series Hardware Installation Manual

Overview
• Inline with fail-to-wire interfaces—Connection of a fail-to-wire paired set.
Note
If you have a inline interface set with a mix of fail-to-wire and non-fail-to-wire interfaces, you cannot enable
hardware bypass on this inline interface set. You can only enable hardware bypass on an inline interface set
if all the pairs in the inline set are valid fail-to-wire pairs.

1-G Network Module with Hardware Bypass

The following figure shows the front panel view of the 1-G fail-to-wire network module (FPR4K-NM-8X1G-F).
Pair ports 1 and 2, 3 and 4, 5 and 6, and 7 and 8 to form hardware bypass paired sets.
Figure 10: FPR-NM-8X1G-F
For each network segment that you want to configure inline with fail-open, connect the cables to the
paired interface set.
For the 40-G network module, you connect the two ports to form a paired set. For the 1/10-G network
modules, you connect the top port to the bottom port to form a fail-to-wire paired set. This allows traffic
to flow even if the security appliance fails or loses power.
