Preparing for Installation
Verifying the Package Contents
Verify the contents of the packing box, shown in Figure 1, to ensure that you have received all items 
necessary to install your Cisco NAC Appliance. Save the packing material in case you need to repack 
the unit. If any item is missing or damaged, contact your Cisco representative or reseller for 
instructions. Some Cisco NAC Appliance models might include additional items that are not shown.

Shipping Box Contents
Note
Because product software is preloaded onto Cisco NAC-3300 Series appliances, the shipping 
contents do not include a separate Cisco Clean Access (CCA) software installation CD. Refer 
to Upgrading Cisco NAC Appliance Software, page 4 for additional details.
Failover Bundles
If you ordered a Failover Bundle, you will receive two physical Cisco NAC Appliances, and you will 
need to perform the initial configuration on each machine as described in this guide. After initial 
configuration is complete, configure High Availability (HA) using the CAM or CAS web console and 
physically connect the appliances to create the HA pair. Refer to the “Configuring High Availability 
(HA)” chapter of the latest 
for CAM HA configuration details and 
for CAS HA configuration details.
