Backup & Restore
From the System page, click Backup & Restore . The gateway maintains the current
configuration in FLASH memory. Once you have configured the gateway to your preferred
functionality, it is useful to store a backup copy of the configuration so that you can restore it
if necessary, or copy it to another gateway.
A backup operation stores the current configuration in a plain text file on a TFTP server. All
information is transferred, including sensitive information such as the password of the
device. Sensitive information is encrypted and stored as such in the file.
This page has the following buttons:
•
Backup —Copies the entire configuration and stores it in the specified location.
• Full Restore —Replaces the entire configuration with the specified file.
•
Partial Restore —Replaces the items identified in the configuration file as partial.This is
useful for setting up a group of standard parameters for use across multiple devices. The
device merges its current configuration with any new values transferred in the
configuration file.

encrypt information between the computer and the device during a configuration

session. When it is turned off, data could be intercepted during the configuration
session.
When this option is on, you must specify https:// in the browser address pane to
