Startup Profile Requirements - Nortel BCM50 3.0 Installation And Maintenance Manual

150 Chapter 15 Using the Startup Profile to configure parameters
Note: You must format the USB storage device for the FAT32 file system. If
necessary, reformat the USB storage device by plugging it into the USB port of
your computer, right-clicking the USB device icon, and selecting FAT32
reformatting. This destroys any data on the USB.
Note: The Startup Profile works only on a BCM50 system with no keycodes loaded. After
the keycodes are loaded, the Startup Profile does not work. This condition prevents
unintentional overwriting of the parameters of a configured system.
For information about setting the initial parameters on the BCM50 system:
