d. In the Security Items panel, in the Keys field, select All keys. Alternatively, you may enter the
key name, and restore 1 key.
CAUTION:
Although the backup file should only contain 1 key, it is a best practice to deselect
everything except keys. If anything else is selected, restoring configurations would
overwrite existing configurations for that node, and would very likely break the node’s
ability to function.
NOTE:
Restoring keys is additive. New keys are added to the existing list, and no existing keys
are replaced.
e. In the Backup Password field, enter the backup password.
f. Click Restore.
A message displays when the restore is complete.
