18.4 Backing Up a Configuration File

Backing up your device configurations allows you to create various “snap shots” of

your device from which you may restore at a later date.

Click Management > Maintenance, and do the following to save your device’s

configuration to your computer.

1 Right-click the Click here (Backup Text Configuration) link and click Save Target

As.

Or:

Click the Click here (Backup Text Configuration) link and then click File, Save

As.

2 In the Save As screen, choose a location to save the file on your computer from

the Save in drop-down list box and type a descriptive name for it in the File

name list box. Click Save to save the configuration file to your computer.

Note: See the chapters on commands to edit the configuration text file.

Note: You can change the “.dat” file to a “.txt” file and still upload it back to the VOP.

18.5 Load Factory Defaults

Use this function to clear all device configuration information you configured and

return to the factory defaults.

Note: Restoring the default configuration deletes all the current settings. It is

recommended to back up the configuration file before restoring the default

configuration.
