Saving and restoring a configuration

Once you have configured your router, it is advisable to back up the settings. Then you

can restore them at any time, should they be accidentally deleted or overwritten.

In the Administration

menu, select Backup and Restore.

Save configuration data

Click on Backup.

Your browser opens a file selection window where you can specify the file you wish

to store in the backup file. On your local PC select a directory where you wish to store

the configuration file, and enter a name for the file.

Once the procedure has been completed, the current configuration data of your router

will have been backed up in the specified file.
Restoring the back-up

Click on Browse and in your file system select the backup file with which you wish

to restore the configuration.

Click on Restore.

A window will appear prompting you to confirm the restore. Click on OK.

The next window will warn you that the router will not be available for about a

minute during the restore procedure. Click on OK to close this message.

The configuration will now be updated.
