Selecting Management>Backup Configuration in Expert mode brings up the screen shown in the following figure.
Web Manager Management>Backup Configuration Screen
An administrative user can use the “Backup Configuration” screen to backup and restore configuration files. The “Type” pull-down menu options are “FTP” for an ftp server and “Storage Device.” The storage device can be either a compact flash or IDE card that was previously inserted in one of the PCMCIA slots, formatted, and configured as described in Configuration>Network>PCMCIA Management.
The “Save” and “Load” buttons appear when either the “FTP” and the “Storage Device” menu options are selected. The “Save” button saves the configuration, and the “Load” restores a previously-saved copy of the configuration files from the selected device.
The previous figure shows the fields that appear when “FTP” is selected from the “Type” pull-down menu. The following table describes the information to enter when FTP is selected.
Path and Filename
Path of a directory on the FTP server where you have write access for saving the backup copy of the configuration file. Specify a filename if you want to save the file under another name. For example, to save the configuration file in a file whose name identifies its origin and date (such as OnSite8802config040406) in a directory called
“/upload” on the FTP server, the following could be entered in the “Path and Filename” field: /upload/OnSite8802config040406.
When “Storage Device” is selected from the “Type” pull-down menu on the Backup Configuration” screen under “Management” in Expert mode, the “Save” and “Load” buttons appear as shown in the following figure.
