After importing the configuration file, you can apply the configuration by restoring the file from the
restore point to which you saved it. See Restoring a Saved Configuration.
Deleting a Configuration File
You can delete a saved configuration file from any of the system's three restore points:

delete.

To back up a configuration file:
1. Select Platform > Configuration > Configuration Management. The Configuration Management
page opens (Figure 82).
2. In the File Number field, select the restore point to which you want to back up the file. If
another configuration file is already saved to that restore point, it will be overwritten by the file
you back up.
3. Click Backup. The backup begins. You can view the status of the backup in the Backup file
creation status field. Possible values in the status field are:
o Ready – The default value, which appears when no backup is in progress.

If an error occurs during the backup, an appropriate error message is displayed in this field.
When the backup is complete, one of the following status indications appears:
o Succeeded
o Failure
The next time the system is reset, the Backup file creation status field returns to Ready.
