Required tools
You need the following tools and equipment to replace appliance components:
•
You must use approved components for the appliance to function properly. Installation of
unapproved components will result in boot failure. To order components, contact Riverbed Support
at https://support.riverbed.com.
•
An antistatic strap. When you replace appliance components, you must wear a grounded ESD
antistatic strap to protect the hardware against electrostatic discharge. Make sure that the strap
makes skin contact prior to handling equipment.
•
Use the magnetic Phillips-head screwdriver enclosed with your shipment to remove screws in the
appliance. The magnetic screwdriver ensures screws aren’t lost in the appliance.
Removing the air duct
The IC 9600 appliances require an air duct for proper airflow. Always operate your appliance with the air
duct in place.
