•Select Restore Factory Configuration, then click Restore to return the VPN Router to its original factory default configuration. This erases data contained in flash memory and also in the configuration file.

Warning: Selecting this option requires you to rebuild your entire configuration from scratch.

An online message specifies the result of the Factory Configuration reset action.

•Click Restore to restore the VPN Router’s previously backed-up configuration. If you previously chose to automatically backup the file systems, then the backup server host (or IP address) and path name, user ID, and password appear in the table.

Check Partial Backup if you want to restore the configuration files, log files or system files from a previous partial backup. The system restores the corresponding directory or files.

Select the preferred backup server. The latest backup copy of the file system, including software image and configuration files, is restored to the hard drive of your VPN Router.

You can use the same backup server for multiple VPN Routers. Each VPN Router creates a unique directory based on its serial number. The following example shows the host, path, and serial number (where the serial number [SN] is five digits):

C:/software/backup/v101/SN01001

You can use the serial number to differentiate backup configurations from multiple VPN Routers that are saved on the same backup server. The serial number uniquely identifies each VPN Router’s backup data.

If you did not configure automatic backup server locations, use the blank row in the server backup field to manually enter a backup server.

Note: FTP servers are often different, so check for information in your server documentation about setting paths that can help you with the upgrade procedure.
