Security Level
From the drop-down list, select the security level for communication between
the SNMPv3 user and the SNMP agent that collects the MIB objects from the
VPN firewall:
NoAuthNoPriv
. Both authentication and privacy are disabled. This is the
default setting.
AuthNoPriv
. Authentication is enabled but privacy is disabled. Make a
selection from the Authentication Algorithm drop-down list and enter an
authentication password.
AuthPriv

password. In addition, make a selection from the Privacy Algorithm
drop-down list and enter a privacy password.
Authentication Algorithm
From the drop-down list, select the protocol for authenticating an SNMPv3 user:
MD5
. Message Digest 5. This is a hash algorithm that produces a 128-bit
digest.
SHA1
. Secure Hash Algorithm 1. This is a hash algorithm that produces a
160-bit digest.
Authentication Password
The authentication password that an SNMPv3 user needs to enter to be granted
access to the SNMP agent that collects the MIB objects from the VPN firewall.
Privacy Algorithm
From the drop-down list, select the encryption method for the communication
between an SNMPv3 user and the SNMP agent that collects the MIB objects
from the VPN firewall:
DES
. Data Encryption Standard.
AES
. Advanced Encryption Standard.
Privacy Password

Manage the Configuration File
The configuration settings of the VPN firewall are stored in a configuration file on the VPN
firewall. This file can be saved (backed up) to a computer, retrieved (restored) from the
computer, cleared to factory default settings, or upgraded to a new version.
Once the VPN firewall is installed and works correctly, make a backup of the configuration file
to a computer. If necessary, you can later restore the VPN firewall settings from this file.
The Backup & Restore Settings screen lets you:
Back up and save a copy of the current settings (see
Back Up Settings
on page
348)
Restore saved settings from the backed-up file (see
Restore Settings
on page
349)
Revert to the factory default settings (see
Revert to Factory Default Settings
on
page
349)
Upgrade the firmware (see
Upgrade the Firmware
on page
350)
Reboot the VPN firewall with a different firmware version (see
Select the Firmware and
Reboot the VPN Firewall
on page
351).
To display the Settings Backup and Firmware Upgrade screen, select
Administration >

Back Up Settings
The backup feature saves all VPN firewall settings to a file. Back up your settings periodically,
and store the backup file in a safe place.
Tip:
You can use a backup file to export all settings to another VPN firewall
that has the same language and management software versions.
Remember to change the IP address of the second VPN firewall before
deploying it to eliminate IP address conflicts on the network.
To back up settings:
1.
On the Settings Backup and Firmware Upgrade screen (see
Figure
225
on page
348),
next to Save a copy of current settings, click the
Backup
button to save a copy of your
current settings. A screen displays, showing the file name of the backup file
(SRX5308.cfg).
2.
Select
Save file
, and click
OK
.
3.
Open the folder in which you have saved the backup file, and verify that it has been saved
successfully.
Note the following:
If your browser is not configured to save downloaded files automatically, locate the folder
in which you want to save the file, specify the file name, and save the file.
If your browser is configured to save downloaded files automatically, the file is saved to
your browser’s download location on the hard disk.

Restore Settings
WARNING:
Restore only settings that were backed up from the same software
version. Restoring settings from a different software version can
corrupt your backup file or the VPN firewall system software.
To restore settings from a backup file:
1.
On the Settings Backup and Firmware Upgrade screen (see
Figure
225
on page
348),
next to Restore saved settings from file, click
Browse
.
2.
Locate and select the previously saved backup file (by default, SRX5308.cfg).
3.
After you have selected the file, click the
Restore
button. A warning message might display,
and you might have to confirm that you want to restore the configuration.
The VPN firewall reboots. During the reboot process, the Settings Backup and Firmware
Upgrade screen might remain visible, or a status message with a counter might show the
number of seconds left until the reboot process is complete. The reboot process takes about
160 seconds. (If you can see the unit: The reboot process is complete when the Test LED on
the front panel goes off.)
WARNING:
Once you start restoring settings, do
not
interrupt the process. Do
not try to go online, turn off the VPN firewall, shut down the
computer, or do anything else to the VPN firewall until the settings
have been fully restored.
Revert to Factory Default Settings
To reset the VPN firewall to the original factory defaults settings:
Use one of the following two methods:
Using a sharp object, press and hold the factory default
Reset
button on the rear panel of
the VPN firewall (see
Rear Panel
on page
19) for about 8 seconds until the Test LED
turns on and begins to blink (about 30 seconds). To restore the factory default settings
when you do not know the administration password or IP address, you need to use the
factory default Reset button method.
On the Settings Backup and Firmware Upgrade screen (see the
Figure
225
on
page
348), next to Revert to factory defaults settings, click the
Default
button, and
confirm your selection.
The VPN firewall reboots. If you use the software Default button, the Settings Backup and
Firmware Upgrade screen might remain visible during the reboot process, or a status
message with a counter might show the number of seconds left until the reboot process is
complete. The reboot process takes about 160 seconds. (If you can see the unit: The reboot
process is complete when the Test LED on the front panel goes off.)
