9.4  Configuration 
This module enables you to back up the current configuration of the AP, restore a configuration of the AP, and 
restore the factory settings of the AP. 
9.4.1  Backing Up and Restoring Configurations 
The  backup  function  enables  you  to  back  up  the  current  configuration  of  the  AP  to  a  local  computer.  The 
restoration function enables you to restore the AP to a previous configuration. 
If  the  AP  enters  the  optimum  condition  after  you  greatly  change  the  configuration  of  the  AP,  you  are 
recommended to back up the new configuration, so that you can restore it after upgrading or resetting the AP. 
 
If you need to apply same or similar configurations to many APs, you can configure one of the APs, back 
up the configuration of the AP, and use the backup to restore the configuration on the other APs. This 
improves configuration efficiency. 
Backing Up the Current Configuration 
Step 1  Choose Tools > Configuration > Backup & Restore. 
Step 2  Click Backup and follow the on-screen instructions to perform operations.
