Maintenance 8-7
v1.0, October 2005
From the main menu of the browser interface, under the Maintenance heading, select the Settings
Backup heading to bring up the menu shown below.
You can use the Settings Backup menu to back up your configuration in a file, restore from that
file, or erase the configuration settings.
Backing Up the Configuration
To save your settings, select the Backup tab. Click the Backup button. Your browser will extract
the configuration file from the firewall and prompts you for a location on your PC to store the file.
You can give the file a meaningful name at this time, such as sanjose.cfg.
Restoring the Configuration
To restore your settings from a saved configuration file, enter the full path to the file on your PC or
click the Browse button to browse to the file. When you have located it, click the Restore button
to send the file to the firewall. The firewall will then reboot automatically.
Erasing the Configuration
It is sometimes desirable to restore the firewall to a known blank condition. To do this, see the
Erase function, which will restore all factory settings. After an erase, the firewall's password will
be password, the LAN IP address will be 192.168.1.1, and the firewall's DHCP client will be
enabled.
To erase the configuration, click the Erase button.
