Protecting Memory Card Files

Nortel Networks ships each memory card with its 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, complete the following steps:

1.

Remove the memory card as described on

page 3-13

.

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 (refer to Figure 1-27
on page 1-31).

Note:

You typically do not operate the ARN 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.
