General Fire Safety Requirements
In the event of a fire emergency involving routers and other network equipment, the safety
of people is the primary concern. Establish procedures for protecting people in the event
of a fire emergency, provide safety training, and properly provision fire-control equipment
and fire extinguishers.
In addition, establish procedures to protect your equipment in the event of a fire
emergency. Juniper Networks products should be installed in an environment suitable
for electronic equipment. We recommend that fire suppression equipment be available
in the event of a fire in the vicinity of the equipment, and that all local fire, safety, and
electrical codes and ordinances be observed when installing and operating your
equipment.
Fire Suppression
In the event of an electrical hazard or an electrical fire, first turn power off to the equipment
at the source. Then use a Type C fire extinguisher, which uses noncorrosive fire retardants,
to extinguish the fire. For more information about fire extinguishers, see "Fire Suppression
Equipment" on page 130.
