Replace an AWN200 Sensor with an AWN201 Sensor - mirroring

You can replace the AWN200 Sensor with the AWN201 Sensor in a mirroring deployment.

Requirements

• An AWN200 Sensor
• Verify that you received these items from Arctic Wolf®:
  • An AWN201 Sensor

    Note: Your sensor has a tamper-evident asset ID: AWN-12XXXXXX. Contact security@arcticwolf.com if the asset ID is missing or was tampered with.

  • Three CAT6 RJ45 Ethernet cables, 2m
  • An AC30 US power cord, 2m

    Notes:

    • If you are in these countries, you are shipped a country specific power cord:
      • Australia
      • Brazil
      • China
      • European Union
      • India
      • Israel
      • Italy
      • Switzerland
      • United Kingdom
    • If you are outside of these countries, you are shipped an AC30 US power cord.
  • A crossover RJ45 Ethernet cable (red), 2m — Use only if needed
  • A set of rack ears — Use only if needed

Steps

1. Install the AWN201 Sensor in the applicable rack location. If needed, use the provided rack ears.

2. On the AWN200 Sensor, disconnect the CAT6 RJ45 Ethernet cables from ports 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, and then, on the AWN201 Sensor connect them to ports 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively.

   Tip: For port information, see AWN200 Sensor components and AWN201 Sensor components.

3. On the AWN200 Sensor, disconnect the CAT6 RJ45 Ethernet cable from the management port, and then, on the AWN201 Sensor, connect it to the management port.

4. Using the AC30 US power cord, connect the power connector on the sensor to a power source.

5. Turn on the sensor power.

   The Power LED is green when the sensor power is on.

Step 2: Install the hardware

1. Install the sensor in the applicable rack location.

   If needed, use the provided rack ears.

2. Using a CAT6 RJ45 Ethernet cable, connect the management port on the sensor to the outbound connection on your network switch.

3. Using the AC30 US power cord, connect the power connector on the sensor to a power source.

   Note: Arctic Wolf recommends that you use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to prevent interruptions from power surges.

4. Turn on the sensor power.

   The power LED is green when the sensor power is on.

5. Ping the management IP address that you provided to Arctic Wolf to verify network connectivity.

6. Wait 15 minutes, and then make sure the status LED is green. This shows that the sensor is connected to the Arctic Wolf monitoring service.

7. If you cannot successfully complete these steps, contact your CST at security@arcticwolf.com.

8. Use the return label to ship the old sensor back to Arctic Wolf.

9. Contact Arctic Wolf to make sure that sensor connectivity, flows, and logs are functioning correctly. Use the ticket for the sensor replacement.
