Creating A Backup Configuration File
Keep in mind the after you set up your securityProbe unit and have all the settings and
alerts completed you can create a backup configuration file. This file will contain the
configuration of the units settings and also the sensor settings and notification alerts.
These backup configuration files can be loaded on other units as long as they are the
same basic type. For example you can load a backup config file from a securityProbe 5E
onto a securityProbe 5ES unit. You can also use the probeManager utility to push out the
same configuration file to multiple units on your network simultaneously.
However it is not recommended to load a backup file from a securityProbe 5ES or 5ESV
unit to a securityProbe 5ES-X20 or X60 or a 5ESV-X20 or X60 unit.
To create your backup config file, you first need to log in to the unit as an Administrator,
then navigate to the Settings page >> System Administrator >> System Maintenance
then click on the “Backup” button as shown in the screen shot above.
You will then browse to where you would like to store the backup file on the PC, making
sure the Save is chosen then clicking the OK button.
You can restore this or another backup file using the Restore All Settings From Backup
File.
