the front of the chassis) along the side panel of the switch chassis. Align the two holes
in the front of the brackets with the two holes on the front of the side panel.
NOTE: Each side of the chassis has twelve holes for attaching the
front-mounting brackets to the switch.
Six holes on the chassis side align with six holes in the front bracket when
the front bracket is mounted flush with the chassis front or recessed 2 in.
