extended distance settings).

switch priority, interop mode) and for switch (preferred
domain ID, rerouting delay, and domain RSCNs).
• SNMP configuration (trap recipients, community names,
and write authorizations).
• Zoning configuration (active zone set and default zone
state).
2. To backup data, click Backup.
3. When the dialog box appears confirming that the backup of
configuration is complete, click OK.
