Backing Up and Restoring the Settings
Use the
System Management > Backup and Restore
page to import, export, and
copy your configuration files. The router has two configuration files: the startup
and the mirror. The Startup file is the configuration file that the router loads when it
boots up. The router automatically copies the startup file to the mirror. Thus, the
Mirror file contains the last known valid configuration. In the future, if the Startup
configuration file fails for any reason, then the Mirror configuration file is used.
NOTE
The router automatically copies the startup configuration to the mirror configuration
after 24 hours of running in stable condition (no reboot and no configuration
changes within a 24-hour period).
To open this page:
Click
