Backup / Restore Page
NOTE: FTP provides an alternative method to accessing and managing the backup files
of the SME 100. See "
The current configuration settings of connected devices can be saved and recalled using the
Backup / Restore page. The backup is saved as two files; IP config and box-specific. Both
files are saved when executing a
Backup All
, but each file must be restored individually. All
backups use the same filenames, so a current
Backup All
overwrites previous files.
The Backup / Restore page contains the following options:
a
(Backup) Backup All — Click this button to save all IP configuration and box specific
parameters from the connected SME 100. A folder is automatically created on the File
Management page called
nortxe-backup
and contains the
ip.cfg
and
box.cfg
files.
These two files are used with the
Restore IP Config
(
b
) and
Restore Box-specific
(
c
) buttons when restoring configuration settings.
b
(Restore) IP Config — Click this button to restore the IP configuration that was last
saved using the
Backup All
button above.
NOTE: If the SME 100 was not backed up previously, or if there is not an
ip.cfg
file stored in the
nortxe-backup
folder, the
Restore IP Config
button will not
be able to restore the IP configuration for the SME 100.
c
(Restore) Box-specific — Click this button to restore the box specific parameters last
saved using the
Backup All
button above.
NOTE: If the SME 100 was not backed up previously, or if there is not a
box.cfg
file stored in the
nortxe-backup
folder, the
Restore Box-specific
button will
not be able to restore the box specific parameters for the SME 100.
When the device is new or recently reset, there will be no backup files. A backup will need
to be completed before a restore can be accomplished. The following sections provide
procedures for using these buttons appropriately.
