Platform Overview
About i15000 Series models
The i15000 Series platform is a powerful system that is designed specically for application delivery
performance and scalability.
The i15000 Series platform is available in a Network Equipment-Building System (NEBS) compliant version
(i15000-N). The i15000-N with stock DC power supply units (PSUs) is NEBS compliant. The i15000-N
with AC PSU upgrades (UPGs) is not NEBS compliant. The i15000 with stock AC PSUs is not NEBS
compliant.
For more information, please see the data sheet at www.f5.com/pdf/products/big-ip-platforms-datasheet.pdf.
About the platform
Before you install this platform, review information about the controls and ports located on both the front
and back of the platform.
On the front of the platform, you can use the LCD touchscreen to view information about, manage, and
reset the system. You can also use the front-panel LEDs to assess the condition of the system.

Peripheral hardware required
For each platform, you might need to provide additional peripheral hardware. If you plan to remotely
administer the system, it would be helpful to have a workstation already connected to the same subnet as
the management interface.
DescriptionType of hardware
You must provide networking devices that are
compatible with the network interface ports on the
Network hubs, switches, or connectors to connect to
the platform network interfaces
platform. You can use either 10000-Megabit switches
with a breakout cable or 40/100-Gigabit Ethernet
switches.
You can use any USB-certied CD/DVD mass
storage device or a USB ash drive for installing
upgrades and for system recovery.
Note: External CD/DVD drives must be externally
powered.
External USB CD/DVD drive or USB ash drive
You can remotely manage the platform by connecting
to a serial console terminal server through the console
port.
Important: In the event that network access is
impaired or not yet congured, the serial console
Serial console
might be the only way to access the unit. You should
perform all installations and upgrades using the
serial console, as these procedures require reboots,
in which network connectivity is lost temporarily.
You can use the default platform conguration if
you have a management workstation set up.

Platform Installation
About installing the i15000 Series platform
After you have reviewed the hardware requirements and become familiar with the i15000 Series platform,
you can install the unit into a 19-inch rack.
Warning: Due to the weight of the platform, at least two people are required to install this chassis into a
rack. Failing to use two people can result in severe personal injury or equipment damage.
Important: Before you install this platform, review the environmental guidelines to make sure that you are
installing the platform into a compatible rack and in the appropriate environment.
Note: F5 recommends that you keep all original packaging, in case you need to repackage and ship the
platform later.
About the quick-install rails
The quick-install rails are optimized for installation into square hole cabinets, but can be installed in other
cabinet styles, such as round hole cabinets, using the screws provided. The rails are easily converted to
mount to either cabinet style.
Figure 5: Quick-install rails
For information about installing the platform using the quick-install rails, see the instruction guide provided
by the manufacturer, which is included with the rail hardware.
Caution: Be sure that the rotating mount brackets located on the ends of the rails are locked into place on
both sides of the platform when installing the quick-install rails.
After installing the platform, secure the chassis to the rack with the rail lock brackets that are provided.
Quick-install rail kit hardware
When you are installing with the quick-install rail kit, use these components.
HardwareQuantity
Quick-install rails2
#8-32 pan head screws, steel zinc2
#8-32 thumb screws (from rail kit)8
Rail lock brackets2
M3 x 8mm athead screws, black with patch
(threadlock) (for rail lock brackets)

Install the rail lock brackets
Be sure that the rails are installed onto the chassis before you install the rail lock brackets.
The rail lock brackets secure the platform to the rack when you are using the quick-install rail kit.
1. Use a #1 Philips screwdriver to attach the rail lock brackets to each side of the unit using two of the
black M3 x 8mm athead screws that are provided with the kit.
Use 5 inch-pounds (0.6 Newton-meters) of torque on these screws.
2. Slide the unit into the rack.
Warning: Due to the weight of the platform, at least two people are required to install this chassis into
a rack. Failing to use two people can result in severe personal injury or equipment damage.
3. Use a #2 Philips screwdriver to secure the rail lock brackets to the rack on each side of the unit using
one of the #8-32 pan head screws that are provided with the kit.
Use 14 to 16 inch-pounds (1.6 to 1.8 Newton-meters) of torque on these screws.
