3.
Modify temp, using the Configuration Manager remote mode.
Refer to the appropriate Bay Networks manual for customizing the type of
router software you use.
4. Save temp. When you save in remote mode, Site Manager automatically
copies the file to the router.
5. To test your modifications, boot the router with the file temp.
Refer to “Booting a Router” in Chapter 7.
6. Check the MIB version in the Site Manager main window. If the version
is earlier than 7.80, verify that
— Adequate free space exists on the router’s diskette to copy temp to another
file
— Adequate contiguous free space exists on the router’s memory card or
flash SIMM to copy temp to another file
7. Copy the file temp to config.
8. Boot the router with config.
9. Delete temp.
Compacting File Space on a Flash Memory Card
You must compact the memory card to ensure that the available free space is
contiguous. When you delete a file on a memory card, the file becomes
inaccessible, but the data remains on the memory card.
Eventually all space is used. The Compact option copies the active files from the
memory card to the router’s memory, erases the memory card, and copies the files
back to the memory card.
Note: Routers that run 7.80 (or later) software automatically verify the
existence of adequate free space on the destination volume specified in a file
copy operation.
Note: References to memory cards in this section also apply to flash SIMMs
(Single Inline Memory Modules) and PCMCIA SRAM cards (used with BNX
software).
