A message appears when the backup completes. The backup file is
saved in the CC-SG file system, and if specified in the Backup to
Remote Location field, to a remote server as well. This backup can
be restored at a later time. See
Restoring CC-SG
(on page 225).
Important: The Neighborhood configuration is included in the
CC-SG backup file so make sure you remember or note down its
setting at the backup time. This is helpful for determining whether
the backup file is appropriate for the CC-SG unit you restore.
