Backup Configuration
Backup configuration allows you to back up (save) the P-330W’s current configuration to a
file on your computer. Once your P-330W 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.
