Rack Mounting the Switch To remove the mounting bracket from the chassis, lift the front edge of the mounting bracket clip with a flathead screwdriver and slide the bracket away from the front flange (opposite from the installation direction). Assembling the Rails onto the Equipment Rack 3.2.2 Rail-rods and rail-slides assemble into two identical rails.
2. Attach rail to the right rear rack post by inserting rod-end rack plugs into post slots (Attaching the Rails - Inset A). The slide assembly must be inside the right posts, relative to the left rack posts. If the rack plugs were previously removed, use bolts to attach the rail to the rack. 3.

The AC power supply connects to a circuit that provides the required power, as specified by Table 4: Switch Specifications (Power Draw).
Important: A disconnect device must be provided as part of the installation. Un dispositif de sectionnement doit être fourni dans le cadre de l'installation. Important: Ensure power is removed from DC circuits before performing any installation actions. Locate the disconnect device, circuit breakers or fuses on DC power lines servicing the circuits.
Cabling the Switch d. Torque the screws to 1.0 N·m / 9 in·lb. Important: Apply the ground connection first during installation and remove last when removing power. Appliquer le motif connexion tout d’abord pendant l’installation et supprimer dernière lors du retrait de puissance. e.

Chapter 5 Configuring the Switch Arista switches ship from the factory in Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) mode. ZTP configures the switch without user intervention by downloading a startup configuration file or a boot script from a location specified by a DHCP server. To manually configure a switch, ZTP is bypassed. The initial configuration provides one username (admin) accessible only through the console port because it has no password.
