OmniAccess 3500 Nonstop Laptop Guardian Gateway Installation Guide 
 
Chapter 3. Hardware Overview 
The gateway is best deployed as a stub of the enterprise firewall at the edge of the 
enterprise network. Alternative, sub-optimal arrangements can also be adopted to 
match topological and functional peculiarities that may be found in the pre-existing 
network infrastructure. The physical location of the gateway can be either intra-
premises or extra-premises (for example, in a data center). 
The gateway comes in a 1U rack-mount appliance (Figure 1) that can be installed in a 
standard 19-inch rack. The shipment package includes two rack-mounting brackets 
that attach to the sides of the appliance.

Front Panel 
A front bezel with the Alcatel-Lucent logo covers the front control panel of the 
appliance, preventing accidental contact with the power button and visual access to 
all LEDs. In the product packaging, the key that opens the front bezel is taped to the 
appliance. For safety purposes, the bezel should be kept in place at all times and only 
opened to power the product on and off. 
The power button and the LEDs on the front control panel of the gateway (normally 
hidden by the front bezel) are shown in Figure 2 and listed in Table 1.
