2. Attach the mounting rails to the front and rear pillars of the rack using

the supplied screws. The rail shelves that the Director chassis will sit on

3. Slide the chassis into the rack so it rests on the rail shelves. See (B).
4. Fasten the chassis with the supplied screws at the front panel ears.
5. Make sure the rack is properly grounded.

you access Director through a gateway, determine the network gateway

address and subnet mask before beginning the installation.
