    The document provides steps for implementing a switch: 1) Pre-stage the new switch by clearing configurations, checking firmware and licensing, reviewing interconnect matrices, and verifying cable lengths. 2) Prepare the environment by taking drives offline and reviewing disk pathing on production systems. 3) Perform the switch swap by listing the order, disabling and powering off the target switch, replacing it with the new switch, downloading configurations, setting the name and interface mode, checking domains and cabling, and re-enabling the switch.
