6�2 Up-/Download of configuration backups
On the Maintenance page, it is possible to save the current
configuration of the Microwall or to write back a previously
downloaded backup file.
Configuration or backup files contain not only the operative
parameters (firewall/VPN rules, VPN keys, inventory lists,
etc.) but also the data relevant for administrative access to
the Microwall (IP parameters, system password, certificate,
etc.). For this reason, backup files are encrypted and cannot
be edited. For extended protection, we recommend that you
also provide the file with an individual backup password. This
password must then be known when uploading the file to a
Microwall.
Download configuration
The Download configuration button starts the download of all
current configuration parameters of the Microwall. If the file is
to receive an individual backup password, this must be ente-
red in the Backup Password field before the download.
i DUploading a backup file with a password is only possible
if you know this password. You should therefore save the
password in a suitable form separately from the backup file.
Upload configuration
Uploading a backup file is possible in two places:
- Standard WBM -> Maintenance
- Initial web page in the course of commissioning
If the backup file is protected with a password, this must be
entered in the Backup Password field. The
Upload Configura-
tion button starts the file selection dialog and the transfer.
After the file has been successfully checked, its contents are
accepted and the Microwall operates with the new parameters
after an automatic restart.
