Front Panel Detail: Failure/Bypass Mode Controls and Indicators
Bypass Button
Forcing a bypass of the SA7100/SA7120 may be necessary when
certain actions must be performed offline (e.g., configuration
changes, entering certificates, or problem isolation).
To force a bypass of SA7100/SA7120 processing, push the Bypass
button ON. The Network Link, Inline, and Server Link LEDs are off
in Bypass mode. ON disables the SA7100/SA7120’s ability to
process e-Commerce traffic. The mode of the Fail-through switch
controls whether traffic continues to flow unprocessed between the
client and the server (discussed below).
Fail-through Switch (Security Level)
This switch allows the user to control what happens in the event of a
failure. It is located in a recess between the network link and server
link connectors. Use a small screwdriver or paper clip to manipulate
the switch. The two options are to either let traffic flow through the
SA7100/SA7120 in the event of a failure (or the Bypass Switch being
on) or to block traffic. When the switch is in Fail-through mode
(down position), traffic is allowed to pass through unprocessed in the
event of a failure of the SA7100/SA7120 or if the Bypass toggle is
ON.
