Backing up and restoring device files through the USB port
The files needed in device running, such as startup files and configuration files, are stored in the
storage medium of the device. To facilitate management of the files on the device, the device
provides the fast backup and restoration function.
• Fast backup—Backs up files on the device to the destination device through a universal serial
bus (USB) port.
• Fast restoration—Transfers files from the device where the files are backed up to the local
device through a USB port. In addition, the system allows you to choose whether to specify the
startup file or configuration file to be restored as the main startup file or configuration file of the
device.
The storage medium of a device has many types, such as flash cards and CF cards. The storage
medium type used by the device depends on the device model.
To backup and restore device files through the USB port:
1. From the navigation tree, select System Management > Configuration.
