10.7.2 Restore Configuration
Restore configuration allows you to upload a new or previously saved configuration file from your
computer to your WAP6906.
Note: Do not turn off the WAP6906 while configuration file upload is in progress.
After you see a “configuration upload successful” screen, you must then wait one minute before
logging into the WAP6906 again.
The WAP6906 automatically restarts in this time causing a temporary network disconnect. In some
operating systems, you may see the following icon on your desktop.
