Regular backups
Make a backup before executing operations that can cause large configuration changes, such
as:
• Upgrading the firmware
• Run
ning the CLI commands execute factoryreset or execute restore
• Clicking the
Reset button in the System Information widget on the dashboard
• Changing the operation mode
To mitigate impact in the event of a network compromise, always password-encrypt your
ba
ckups.
Th
ere are two backup methods:
• Manual (see “To back up the configuration via the web UI” on page 207)
Figure 84:System > Maintenance > Backup & Restore
• Via FTP/SFTP (see “To back up the configuration via the web UI to an FTP/SFTP server” on
page 208).
To lessen the impact on performance, schedule the FTP backup time for off-peak hours.
