Users Guide

The foreign le system remains mounted as long as the device is up and does not reboot. You can run the le system commands without
having to mount or un-mount the le system each time you run a command. When you save the conguration using the write command,
the mount command is saved to the startup conguration. As a result, each time the device re-boots, the NFS le system is mounted
during start up.

Important Points to Remember
• You cannot copy a le from one remote system to another.
• You cannot copy a le from one location to the same location.
• When copying to a server, you can only use a hostname if a domain name server (DNS) server is congured.
• The usbflash command is supported on the device. Refer to your system’s Release Notes for a list of approved USB vendors.
