Chapter 12 Maintenance

12.7 Configuration Backup/Restore Screen

Backup configuration allows you to back up (save) the WAP3205’s current configuration to a file on your computer. Once your WAP3205 is configured and functioning properly, it is highly recommended that you back up your configuration file before making configuration changes. The backup configuration file will be useful in case you need to return to your previous settings.

Restore configuration allows you to upload a new or previously saved configuration file from your computer to your WAP3205.

Click Maintenance > Backup/Restore. Information related to factory defaults, backup configuration, and restoring configuration appears as shown next.
