25-6 Firmware and Configuration File Maintenance
Figure 25-6 Successful Backup Confirmation Screen
25.3 Restore Configuration
This section shows you how to restore a previously saved configuration. Note that this function erases the current
configuration before restoring a previous back up configuration; please do not attempt to restore unless you have a
backup configuration file stored on disk.
FTP is the preferred method for restoring your current computer configuration to your VLC1012 since FTP is
faster. Please note that you must wait for the system to automatically restart after the file transfer is complete.
WARNING!
DO NOT INTERRUPT THE FILE TRANSFER PROCESS AS THIS MAY PERMANENTLY DAMAGE
YOUR VLC1012. WHEN THE RESTORE CONFIGURATION PROCESS IS COMPLETE, THE VLC1012
WILL AUTOMATICALLY RESTART.
25.3.1 Restore Using FTP or TFTP
For details about backup using (T)FTP please refer to earlier sections on FTP and TFTP file upload in this chapter.
