NMS300 Network Management System Application
Manage Configurations and Firmware User Manual137
Note: For information about restoring the application system settings, see
Restore the system settings on page 286.
The Restore table (which you access by selecting CONFIG > REST
ORE) displays the
backup configuration files that the application adds after it backed up a configuration.
The application saves backup configuration files for the data retention period. For more
information, see
Set the data retention period on page 271.
If the configuration file that you need does not display in the Restore table, you can import the
file into the application. For more information, see Import a configuration file on page 153.
The Restore table also displays the configuration files that you imported.
CAUTION:
When you restore the configuration of a device, you must provide the
correct configuration file. Make sure that you select both the correct device
type and correct device model for the configuration file that you upload to
the application. If you provide the wrong configuration file, the application
pushes the incorrect configuration file when it executes the configuration
restore job and you can damage the device.
The following sections describe the tasks that you can perform with device configuration files:
•
Restore the configuration of a single device
• Customize and promote a configuration file
• Promote a configuration file for an FVS318G firewall
• Restore the configuration of several identical devices
• Import a configuration file
• Export a configuration file
• Modify a configuration file
• Remove a configuration file
• Compare two configuration files
