3. Important Conguration Information
3.1 Support for Two Simultaneous Congurations
As work on conguration progresses, changes will need to be made to multiple pages in the Management Interface. As work is
completed on each page, the changes must be saved and there is a Save button conveniently located on every conguration
page where conguration changes can be made. If changes are made and you navigate away from the page without saving,
the changes may be discarded.
When you are satised that all conguration changes on the UCrypt device are complete and correct, click the Apply button
located by the save buttons on any page, they all do the same thing. There is no need to apply the conguration as you
complete work on each page. You may Save your work as you go and Apply the conguration when completed.
3.1.1 Saved Conguration
This can be thought of as a work in progress and any changes can be made in the conguration without affecting how the
UCrypt device is currently working and providing services.
This saved conguration can be discarded at any time without affecting the working UCrypt device conguration or can be
Applied to the UCrypt device, to make it the new working conguration. To discard your conguration changes browse to the
Conguration tab and click the Revert button. The Revert action is not service affecting.
3.1.2 Applied Conguration
This is the working conguration that the UCrypt device is currently using to provide the desired services to the output and
regardless of the changes made in the Management Interface as discussed above, changes do not take effect until the Apply
button is clicked and the conguration is applied.
During conguration, while changes are being made, the saved conguration and the applied conguration differ by the
changes that have been made and saved since last clicking Apply. After the Apply button is clicked, the saved conguration
and the applied conguration are identical.
NOTE: Clicking the Apply button will cause a service interruption while the UCrypt device re-
provisions itself with the new working conguration. It is best to make all changes necessary on all
conguration pages and apply the changes when completed.
