Hi,

Do we have an example of a preventive maintenance checklist for Sangfor IAM M5200?

Regular, normal maintenance is referred to as preventive maintenance since it helps keep equipment operational and minimizes unscheduled downtime.
What about cleaning the appliance? It's always a good idea to backup your current running configuration to an external location while performing preventive maintenance. This is quite helpful since you can always restore the running backup configuration you stored if your appliance has any problems. Another option is to designate a spare port in your appliance as your spare management port so that, in the event that the default management port experiences a problem, you can manage your appliance directly using your spare management port.

Preventative maintenance best practices include monitoring for software updates and assessing the equipment for physical damage on a regular basis. Don't forget to clean the equipment properly as well.

Regularly checking for software updates and inspecting the equipment for physical damage are part of preventative maintenance best practices. Don't forget to adequately clean the equipment as well.
