1Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and connect the metal end to an appropriate ground point on the rack.

2Verify that all power supplies have been removed from the switch.

3Support the switch while you remove the rack-mounting screws holding the front mounting brackets in place against the rack post (Figure 122).

4Slide the switch out of the rack.
