Cisco Cisco Web Security Appliance S690 Installation Guide

Power up the appliance by pressing the On/Off switch on the 
front panel of the Cisco S190. You must wait 10 minutes for the 
system to initialize each time you power up the system. After the 
machine powers up, a solid green light indicates that the 
appliance is operational.

If turned on quickly after connecting power to the 
appliance, the appliance powers up, the fans spin and 
the LEDs turn on. Within 30-60 seconds, the fans stop 
and all LEDs turn off. The appliance powers on 31 
seconds later. This behavior is by design to allow the 
system firmware and controller to synchronize.



Wait at least 10 minutes for the system to complete the 
power up sequence and the LEDs to turn green. If you 
turn the power off before the initialization is complete, 
the appliance will NOT reach an operational state and 
must be returned to Cisco.
