rack first, then proceed to remove the rest of the switches from top to bottom.

the device.
•

•
Ensure that you have disconnected any cables or wires attached to the QFX5110 switch ports or Precision
Time Protocol (PTP) ports.
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available:
•
A Phillips (+) screwdriver, number 2 or number 3, depending on the size of your rack mounting screws,
for removing the QFX5110 from the rack.
