Managing log files and backups
To save an initial configuration on compact flash
1 If a compact flash card is not already accessible, insert a non-bootable CF
card into the CF adapter and reboot the appliance.
See
“Making a non-bootable compact flash card” on page 143.
2 In the Network Security console, click Configuration > Node > 7100 Series
Configuration > Save Configuration File .
3 In Select Node , choose a node from the pull-down list.
4 Click OK .
5 In Appliance Network Configuration , in Netmask, type the node’s netmask.
Typically this is something like 255.255.255.0.
6 In Default Router , type the IP address of the default router for this node.
Note: Values for the netmask and default router will automatically update
after the slave appliance is connected to the network and initially
configured. These values will appear on the Advanced Network Options tab
when you edit the node.
7 Optionally type values for DNS Server 1 and DNS Server 2 .
8 Click OK .
9 In the Save Config File window, click Save.
Network Security saves the file as appcfg.enc.
Note: The enc suffix means the file is encrypted. This encryption is an
automatic process and does not require you to enter a key or password.

the node hard drive. You can select the file to view from files on both the
compact flash and the hard drive.
