Managing Device Permissions
This section provides additional information on copying and deleting permissions for your devices.
Copying Permissions
Permissions can be copied from a device to another compatible device. For example, you can copy permissions from one MDK-111A-M card to another MDK-111A-M card but not to a FSR-6601 card. The individual card settings are not copied, just the permissions. To copy the card settings, you must use the DataSafe™ feature of your MFC-8300 series Network Controller card.
