The MSS should be positioned close to the device it will be servicing. Since powering
down the unit will terminate any active sessions, it may be desirable to place the device
server in a location secure from user access. Also be aware of the unit's environmental
operating limits and cabling requirements. See Chapter
7:Pinouts
and
MSS-VIA
Specifications
at the end of this chapter for details.
When using a wireless LAN PC card for the network connection, be sure to read the PC
card manual for specific placement and distance requirements.
