1.1 Overview and Key Default Settings

1.2 Rack-mounted Installation
The ZyWALL can be mounted on an EIA standard size, 19-inch rack or in a wiring
closet with other equipment. Follow the steps below to mount your ZyWALL on a
standard EIA rack using a rack-mounting kit. Make sure the rack will safely
support the combined weight of all the equipment it contains and that the position
of the ZyWALL does not make the rack unstable or top-heavy. Take all necessary
precautions to anchor the rack securely before installing the unit.
Note: Leave 10 cm of clearance at the sides and 20 cm in the rear.
