Protecting Memory Card Files
Bay Networks ships each memory card with the read/write protect switch in the
unprotected position (Figure 3-5)
. After successfully loading the configuration file
and saving your configuration, you may want to write-protect the memory card for
backup purposes.
To change memory-card protection:
1.
Remove the memory card as described in “Removing a Flash Memory
Card” on page 3-12.
2.
Adjust the read-write protect switch, which is located on the edge
opposite the INSERT arrow of the memory card (Figure 3-5)
.

3.
Reinsert the memory card into the card receptacle.
For information, see “Installing the Flash Memory Card” on page 1-29.
Note:
You typically do not operate the ARN/DC with a write-protected
memory card. You should make a copy of your configuration on another
memory card, write-protect that card, and store it in a safe place.
