Repackaging Guidelines
About repackaging the platform
If it becomes necessary to transport the platform to another location or return it to F5
®
Networks, these
guidelines will help ensure that you repackage the platform properly.
If you are running BIG-IP
®
software version 11.6 or later, you can perform a disk erase operation to erase
all sensitive data from solid-state drives (SSDs) and hard disk drives (HDDs) before you return a platform
to F5. For more information, see

.
Important: Before returning any equipment, contact F5 to obtain a Service Order (SO) or Return Material
Authorization (RMA) case number.
Important: You must use shipping materials and packaging provided by F5 when repackaging the platform.
Note: Be sure to keep a record of the tracking number and ship date. These will be needed to track lost
shipments.
Note: Do not include any cables, removable transceiver modules, GBICs, or other peripheral items if you
are returning the platform to F5.
