Restore Configuration
Restore configuration allows you to upload a new or previously saved configuration file from your
computer to your FMG.
Do not turn off the FMG while configuration file upload is in progress.
After the FMG configuration has been restored successfully, the login screen appears. Login again to
restart the FMG.
The FMG automatically restarts in this time causing a temporary network disconnect. In some operating
systems, you may see the following icon on your desktop.

to be in the same subnet as that of the default device IP address (192.168.1.1).
