CAUTION:
When you restore the configuration of a device, you have to provide the
correct configuration file. You need to make sure that any changes you
make do not corrupt the configuration file. When you provide a corrupted
configuration file, the NMS300 system pushes out the corrupted
configuration file while it executes the configuration restore and you can
damage the device.
