Restoring The Rac Configuration - Bay Networks 5399 Release Note

Remote Access Software Version 5.3 Release Notes
300115-B Rev. A
94
You may want to create a backup directory elsewhere and copy this file
into that directory. This ensures that there is no chance of the file being
corrupted or otherwise changed when you upgrade the unit.
Restoring the RAC Configuration
This process is necessary for restoring a configuration to a RAC.
Placing the File onto the RAC
If you have previously saved a RAC configuration in a file on a UNIX or
Windows NT host, you can use that file to configure a new unit.
The new unit must have an IP address assigned to it already. See
Using monitor Mode to Provide an IP Address for a New Unit
page 96 for basic instructions on booting a unit. Complete
instructions are in the hardware installation manual for your unit.
Also, passwords and keys are not saved, and must be restored
individually.
If you plan to edit the configuration file that you are going to place on
another RAC, copy the file and rename it before you start making changes.
Pay special attention to unit-specific parameters such as local_address
and remote_address.
On a UNIX host, you can start na by entering ./na from the directory in
which you installed na. On a Windows NT host, you can either double-
click on the na icon or use File Manager and click on na.exe.
You must have root permission on the host.
