3.Highlight the file and click Upload.
Note: When uploading software to the VPN firewall, it is important not to interrupt the Web browser by closing the window, clicking a link, or loading a new page.
If the browser is interrupted, it may corrupt the software. When the upload is complete, your firewall will automatically restart. The upgrade process will typically take about 1 minute.
In some cases, you may need to reconfigure the firewall after upgrading.
Backing Up and Restoring Settings
The configuration settings of the VPN firewall are stored within the firewall in a configuration file. This file can be saved (backed up) to a user’s PC, retrieved (restored) from the user’s PC, or cleared to factory default settings.
You can use the Backup/Restore Settings section of the Settings Backup and Firmware Upgrade screen shown in Figure
To backup and restore your configuration:
1.Click Backup. Your browser will extract the configuration file from the firewall and prompt you for a location on your PC to store the file. You can give the file a meaningful name at this time, such as sanjose.cfg.
2.Click Browse to locate your backup file. When you have located it, click Restore to send the file to the firewall. The firewall will then reboot automatically.
It is sometimes desirable to restore the firewall to a known blank condition. To erase the configuration and revert to the factory default settings, click default. After reverting to the factory default setting, the firewall password will be password, the LAN IP address will be 192.168.0.1, and the firewall DHCP client will be enabled.
To restore the factory default configuration settings without knowing the login password or IP address, you must use the reset button on the rear panel of the firewall. See “Restoring the Default Configuration and Password” on page
