1From SAM, select Manage Galaxy 65 Subsystem > Utilities > Configuration Utilities > Restore Config File.

The Restore Config File page displays.

2Select the option you want:

•Use Current IP Addresses: Restores the configuration file to the Galaxy 65 Subsystem that SAM is currently connected to and retains the currently assigned IP addresses. Use this to restore a backup configuration file to the current Galaxy 65 Subsystem without changing the IP addresses of the Galaxy 65 Subsystem. This option ignores the IP addresses contained in the configuration file.

•Use New IP Addresses: Restores the configuration file to the Galaxy 65 Subsystem SAM is currently connected to and changes the Galaxy 65 Subsystem’s IP addresses to what you enter here. Use this option to clone the Galaxy 65 Subsystem and change the IP addresses to what you enter. This option ignores the IP addresses contained in the configuration file. Enter the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and IP Gateway for both SMs on the same Galaxy 65 Subsystem. After the file is restored, you must reconnect to the Galaxy 65 Subsystem using one of the new IP addresses.

•Use Restore File IP Addresses: Restores the configuration file to the Galaxy 65 Subsystem that SAM is currently connected to and changes the IP addresses to those contained in the configuration file. Use this to restore a configuration file to the current Galaxy 65 Subsystem whenever the IP addresses in the configuration file are the IP addresses you want assigned to the Galaxy 65 Subsystem. After the file is restored, you may need to reconnect to the Galaxy 65 Subsystem using one of the IP addresses from the file.
