Connect Cables
Symantec recommends that you plug in cables, verify the LEDs and LCD, and perform
an initial configuration before rack-mounting the appliance. If you would rather install
the appliance in the rack before performing configuration tasks, skip to Step 6—Rack-
Mount the Appliance.
Note: Network cables are not included and must be supplied by the user.
To deploy the DLP-S500 and connect its cables:
a. Remove the End User License Agreement (EULA) sticker from the anti-static bag in-
cluded with the appliance. By removing the sticker and installing the product, you are
agreeing to the terms and conditions of the EULA.
b. Attach the lug-equipped end of the
grounding wire (10 AWG) to both
grounding studs on the appliance,
securing it with the star washers
and M5 nuts. Attach the other end
of the grounding wire to a proper
earth-ground.
