Backup Command

The backup command makes a copy of the Dominion SX configuration and writes the backup
onto an ftp server. The current SX device configuration is saved to the computer with the IP set in
the command parameters in an encrypted format. All device settings are stored in the file
EXCEPT network settings. The file can recovered if a Restore operation becomes necessary.
The syntax of the backup command is:

backup [ip IP] [path PATH] [file FILE]

The backup command options are described in Table 49.

Factoryreset Command

The factoryreset command returns the Dominion SX console server to its default factory settings.

Important: If you choose to revert to the factory settings, you will erase all your
custom settings and will lose your connection to the Dominion SX because, upon
rebooting, the IP address of the unit will be reset to the factory default IP address of
192.168.0.192.

The syntax of the factoryreset command is:
