Watch this quick video about How to rack mount a Citrix ADC hardware appliance.
Mount the appliance on a rack
Most appliances can be installed in standard server racks that conform to the EIA‑310‑D specification.
The appliances ship with a set of rails, which you must install before you mount the appliance. The
only tools that you need for installing an appliance are a Phillips screwdriver and a flathead screw‑
driver.
Warning:
If you are installing the appliance as the only unit in the rack, mount it at the bottom. Make sure
that the heaviest unit is at the bottom if the rack contains other units. Install stabilizing devices,
if available, in the rack before mounting the appliance.
Your appliance requires one or two rack units depending on the height of the appliance.
