Applying seals to a Brocade MLXe-32 device

Use the figures in this section as a guide for security seal placement on a Brocade MLXe-32 device. Each

Brocade MLXe-32 device requires the placement of 58 seals:

• Front: Affix a total of 48 seals to the front of the chassis. Affix 46 seals—two rows of 11 seals and two rows

of 12—one from each module to the front panel of the chassis. All seals are oriented vertically, and each

seal connects one module to the front panel of the chassis. Affix two seals to the front panel of the

chassis, one covering the right screw and one covering the left screw that secure the front panel to the

chassis. See FIGURE 7 for correct seal orientation and positioning.

• Rear: Affix a total of ten seals to the rear of the device. Affix eight horizontally-oriented seals from the outer

bottom corner of each power supply to the side of the chassis. You must bend these seals to place them

correctly. Affix two seals covering the fans at the base of the rear side of the device. See FIGURE 8 for

correct seal orientation and positioning.
