Original Abstract Submitted
a networking device security system includes a chassis housing a networking device. a locking element is movably coupled to the chassis adjacent the networking device, and an actuator device in the chassis is configured to actuate the locking element. a networking device security subsystem in the chassis receives a networking device locking command via a network, verifies the networking device locking command and, in response, controls the actuator device to actuate the locking element into a locked orientation that prevents movement of the networking device relative to the chassis. subsequently, the networking device security subsystem receives a networking device unlocking command via the network, verifies the networking device unlocking command and, in response, controls the actuator device to actuate the locking element into an unlocked orientation that does not prevent movement of the networking device relative to the chassis.
