Managing the configuration
You can back up, restore, save, or reset the device configuration.
Backing up the configuration
Configuration backup allows you to do the following:
• Open and view the configuration files for the next startup, including the .cfg file and .xml file.
• Back up the configuration files for the next startup to your local host.
IMPORTANT:
HP recommends backing up both the .cfg and .xml files. If you back up only the .cfg file, some
configuration information might not be restored when, for example, the configuration is mistakenly
removed.
To back up the configuration:
1. Select Device > Configuration from the navigation tree.
The Backup page appears.

2. Click the upper Backup button.
The file download dialog box appears.
3. Choose to view the .cfg file or to save the file to your local host.
4. Click the lower Backup button.
The file download dialog box appears.
5. Choose to view the .xml file or to save the file to the local host.
Restoring the configuration
Configuration restoration allows you to do the following:
• Upload a .cfg file from your local host to the device.
• Upload an .xml file from your local host to the device, and delete the .xml configuration file that
was used for the next startup.
The restored configuration takes effect at the next device startup.
