Removing and Replacing the Chassis Cover
Caution
Follow proper safety procedures when removing and replacing the chassis cover by reading the safety
warnings in Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for the Cisco Intrusion Prevention System
4200 Series Appliance Sensor.

not require any special tools and does not create any radio frequency leaks.
To remove and replace the chassis cover, follow these steps:
Step 1
Log in to the CLI.
Step 2
Prepare the IPS 4260 to be powered off. Wait for the power down message before continuing with Step 3.
