5 Restoring and Backing Up the Mediant 1000
Configuration
The ‘Configuration File’ screen (shown in Figure 5-1), enables you to restore (load a new ini file to
the gateway), or back up (make a copy of the VoIP gateway
ini file and store it in a directory on
your PC) the current gateway configuration. For a description of the
ini file, refer to Table 7-1 on
page 34.
Back up your configuration if you want to protect your VoIP gateway configuration. The backup
ini
file includes only those parameters that were modified and contain other than default values.
Restore your configuration if the VoIP gateway has been replaced or has lost its configuration.
You can restore the VoIP gateway configuration from a previous backup or from a newly created
ini file. To restore the VoIP gateway configuration from a previous backup you must have a
backup of the VoIP gateway configuration stored on your PC.
