Select a location.
The MSS should be positioned close to the device(s) it will be
servicing but out of the way of everyday activity. Since powering
down the unit will terminate any active sessions, it may be
desirable to place the server in a location secure from user access.
Also be aware of the unit’s environmental operating limits and
cabling limits. See Appendix D for details.
