Unpacking the Switch
Unpack the switch as follows:

Enterasys Networks if there are any signs of damage. Refer to “Getting Help” on page xvii for

Installing the Switch on a Flat Surface
When installing the switch on a flat surface, the installation of the rubber feet is recommended to
prevent the switch from sliding on a flat surface. For instructions to rack mount the switch,
proceed to “Rack Mounting the Switch” on page 2-3.
Installing the Rubber Feet
To install the rubber feet:
1. Place the switch on its back on a sturdy flat surface to gain access to the bottom of the chassis.
2. Remove the four rubber feet from their plastic bag in the shipping box.
3. Remove the protective strip from the back of one rubber foot and position it on a corner and
press firmly into place.
Repeat this procedure to install the remaining three rubber feet in the other three corners.
4. After installing the rubber feet, return the switch to its upright position.
If a number of switches are being installed in a stack, repeat steps 1 through 4 to install the
rubber feet on each switch before continuing with the installation.
