Use the checkboxes in this column to select or deselect specific devices to be archived. For example,
if you selected a device group in the previous window, you can use these checkboxes to deselect
individual devices in that group.
IP Address
The IP address of the device to be archived. Note that chassis that support Distributed Forwarding
Engines (DFEs), such as the Matrix N−Series, display a single management IP even though there may
be multiple DFE modules in the chassis.
Schedule
Frequency
Use the drop−down list to select the frequency with which you want the archive performed: Never,
Now, Once, Daily, Weekly, or On Server Startup. The Never option lets you create an archive
operation without actually performing it. The Now option lets you perform an immediate archive.
Select Starting Day
Use the drop−down list to select the month you want the archive to start. A calendar corresponding to
the selected month is displayed. Select the desired starting day by clicking on the calendar. You can
use the arrows on either side of the drop−down list to change the month, and change the year by
entering a new year in the text field. (This field is grayed out if you have selected the Never or Now
frequency.)

Set the starting time for the operation and select AM or PM. (This field is grayed out if you have
selected the Never or Now frequency.)

Groups of field. Set the value to 1 to have the operation performed serially, one device after another.

are performing an archive operation on multiple devices and you want the operation to stop after a
failure on a single device.

Archives folder, and performed according to its scheduled parameters. You can change the archive's
parameters; see Editing an Archive for instructions.
