OL-5637-02
New Features in Releases 3.6.3 Through 3.6.8
Use the following backup procedure to ensure that you have a ready backup configuration.
Backing Up the Existing Configuration to the Flash
1. Go to Administration | File Management | Files.
2. Select the configuration file and click Copy.
3. Enter a name for the backup file (in 8.3 format; for example, name it CON368BK.TST)
You have now backed up the existing configuration to the flash.
Backing Up the Existing Configuration to an External Server
You should also back up the configuration to a server. You can do this in many ways, one of which is to
download the file using your Web Browser from the HTML interface (VPN Manager).
You can now upgrade the software with assurance that you can return to your previous firmware using
your previous configuration.
Note After upgrading, be sure to clear the cache on your browser. Release 3.6.8 adds features and enhances
HTML page layouts. Clearing your browser cache ensures that everything displays correctly and uses
the new features and layout.
Downgrading from Release 3.6.x
If you need to return to a release prior to Release 3.6.x, do the following:
Step 1 Reload the firmware for the desired release. (Do not reboot yet.)
Step 2 Rename the existing configuration (for example, rename it as CON368BK.TST).
Step 3 Delete “CONFIG”.
Step 4 Copy the previously saved backup file (for example, CON36BKP.TST) to CONFIG. Do not click Save
(otherwise, your original CONFIG file will be overwritten with the running configuration).
Step 5 Perform a software reset.
Your prior firmware and image are restored.
