Repackaging Guidelines
About repackaging the platform
The VIPRION® 4800 Series chassis and blades are designed to be shipped and packaged separately. 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.
Important: Before returning any equipment, contact F5 to obtain a
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 XFP/SFP/SFP+ modules,
GBICs, or other peripheral items if you are returning the platform to F5
Networks.
Repackaging the chassis
The VIPRION® 4800 chassis must be shipped empty
(with no blades or top bezel (with LCD component) installed) and in
F5®-provided packaging.
Repackaging a blade
The VIPRION®
B4000 Series blades must be shipped in F5-provided
packaging.
