Protecting Memory Card Files

Bay Networks ships each memory card with its Read/Write Protect switch in the

unprotected position (F

igure 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, complete the following steps:

1. Remove the memory card as described in the previous section.

2. Adjust the read-write protect switch, which is located on the edge

opposite the INSERT arrow of the memory card (F

igure 3-5).

Figure 3-5. Memory Card Read/Write Protect Switch

Reinsert the memory card into the card receptacle.

Note: You typically do not operate the ARN with a write-protected memory

card. We recommend making a copy of your conﬁguration on another memory

card, write-protecting the card, and storing it in a safe place.
