Committing Changes to Permanent Storage

Whenever you change system settings, the changes are initially placed in temporary storage (called random access memory or RAM). Your changes are made effective when you submit them, but will be lost if the device is reset or turned off.

Follow these steps to commit changes to permanent storage.

1.Select Admin > Commit & Reboot. The Commit & Reboot page displays.

2.Click [Save]. (Disregard the selection in the Reboot Mode drop-down list; it does not affect the commit process.)

The changes are saved to permanent storage.

When committing your changes, note that:

If you change the LAN IP address information, you must commit the changes and then reboot the system to activate them.

All other changes are activated when you commit them (no reboot is needed).

Rebooting the device using Configuration Manager

If, after rebooting the device, you find that it does not operate properly with the new configuration, you can reboot using options that reactivate a previous configuration or the manufacturer’s default configuration.

You can select from the following options when rebooting:

Setting

Description

Reboot From Default Configuration

manufacturer. Choosing this option erases any custom settings.

 

 

Reboot From Backup Configuration

These are the settings that were in effect before you committed

 

new settings in the current session.

 

 

Reboot From Last Configuration

Reboots the device using the current settings in permanent

 

memory, including any changes you just committed.
