Note: The procedure for booting a POS terminal into PXE mode can vary depending on the model of the terminal and the configuration of the DHCP and PXE servers. In the case of our POS01 terminal, we found it necessary to manually interrupt the boot sequence and change the primary boot device to LAN, while on POS02 it was possible to initiate a boot from LAN by simply pressing F12 during bootup. See Appendix A, “Alternate boot sequence on POS systems” on page 133 for more information on this topic.

2.From the web console, right click the terminal’s entry in the POS list and select Backup. This will start the POS backup wizard where you can enter a name for this backup (Figure 5-9 on page 106). Type a name and click Next.
