Chapter 6: Update and Restore Your Synology Router
This chapter introduces how to update SRM and its packages and how to back up/restore SRM.
Update SRM and Packages
Synology periodically releases SRM and package updates to x reported issues, enhance performance, and offer
new features.
SRM
To update SRM and modify update preferences, go to
Control Panel
>
System
>
Update & Restore
.
The system will display the current SRM version and check if a newer SRM update is available. SRM allows
manual update if you have obtained a .pat update le.
Note:
The version being installed must be newer than the current installed version.
Packages
At
Package Center
>
Update
, the system will display packages that have any updates for download. You can
also manually update packages with a .spk le.
To update packages and customize the update settings, go to
Package Center
>
Settings
.
Note:
The version being installed must be newer than the current installed version.
Back up and Restore SRM
You may preserve the current settings by backing up the conguration of SRM. Once you have completed setting
up SRM, we recommend saving the .dss le for future reference or recovery.
At
Control Panel
>
System
>
Update & Restore
, you can back up current SRM congurations or restore
previous congurations by importing the .dss le here.
Note:
1.
Restore factory default settings
will have all user and package data stored on the external storages erased, and
the entire system will be restored to default settings. Please refer to
SRM Help
for more information.
2. Cross-model restoration (e.g. restoring RT1900ac congurations on RT2600ac) is allowed. However, model-
specic congurations (e.g. Wi-Fi settings) will be reset to default when restored.
