Save and Restore Device Configuration
After completing configuration of your VGADVI Recorder, it is good practice to save the device configuration so
you may restore it at a later date (i.e. after a change that wasn’t wanted, or after a factory reset) or so you may
load it onto another device to provision it with the same configuration.
This section covers the following topics:

Save device configuration
The VGADVI Recorder web interface allows you to save the current device configuration to your admin
computer's hard drive. It’s good practice to do this before making any major changes to a working
configuration and before doing a firmware update.
The resulting backup file includes all non-default configuration settings for the device, except the
user passwords which are reset when a configuration is restored.
To save the current device configuration:
1. Connect to the admin interface using your preferred connection mechanism. See Connecting to the
Admin Interface.
2. Login as admin.
3. Select the Maintenance link in the Configuration menu; the maintenance page opens.
4. Click the Backup button next to Backup Current Configuration; the device performs a backup and
depending on your browser the file is either automatically downloaded or you are asked to save the file.
