Install the FIPS Opacity Shield

Install the FIPS Opacity Shield
Caution
This procedure describes how to install the FIPS opacity shield on the front of a Firepower 9300 that is already
rack-mounted. The FIPS opacity shield has an access cover that is already attached with two captive screws.
The FIPS opacity shield covers the pullout asset card on the front panel that contains the serial number, but
there is another pullout asset card on the side of the chassis and the serial number is also printed on the top
of the Supervisor. See
need the serial number whenever you contact Cisco TAC.
Before you begin
You need the following before you install the FIPS opacity shield:
• Phillips head screwdriver
• Chassis already rack-mounted
• All cabling disconnected from the front of the chassis
• FIPS kit
Step 1 Remove the two screws from each side of the chassis brackets.
The chassis sits on rails that support its weight so it will not fall when the screws are removed.
Step 2 Using the four 10-32 x .75-in. screws from the FIPS kit, attach the FIPS opacity shield to the left and right chassis brackets,
two for each side.
