The configuration snapshot is a compressed file that is encrypted with the PGP
key. It means that only an owner of the key can decrypt the data retrieved from
your NA-1400. It can be the NA-1400 or server-side software vendor.
No passwords are included into the snapshot, except for the proxy and Web
repository credentials that might be used at NA-1400 update time.
Use logging only for troubleshooting and disable this option at regular operation
time in order to avoid server operation slowdowns and waste of a disk space on
system partitions.
