Backup/Restore
28.1
Overview
This chapter shows you how to backup, restore and reset your NBG-419N.
Backup configuration allows you to back up (save) the NBG-419N’s current configuration to a file on
your computer. Once your NBG-419N is configured and functioning properly, it is highly
recommended that you back up your configuration file before making configuration changes. The
backup configuration file will be useful in case you need to return to your previous settings.
Restore configuration allows you to upload a new or previously saved configuration file from your
computer to your NBG-419N.

What You Can Do
Use the
Backup/Restore
screen (
Section 28.3 on page 179
) to view information related to factory
defaults, backup configuration, and restoring configuration.
