Configuration File Management

The configuration settings of the WPN824 router are stored within the router in a configuration
file. This file can be saved (backed up) to a user's PC, retrieved (restored) from the user's PC, or
cleared to factory default settings.
From the Main Menu of the browser interface, under the Maintenance heading, select the Settings
Backup heading to bring up the menu shown below.
Figure 6-5: Settings Backup menu
Three options are available, and are described in the following sections.

Restoring and Backing Up the Configuration

The Restore and Backup options in the Settings Backup menu allow you to save and retrieve a file
containing your router's configuration settings.
To save your settings, click the Backup button. Your browser will extract the configuration file
from the router and will prompt you for a location on your PC to store the file. You can give the
file a meaningful name at this time, such as pacbell.cfg.
To restore your settings from a saved configuration file, enter the full path to the file on your PC or
click the Browse button to browse to the file. When you have located it, click the Restore button to
send the file to the router. The router will then reboot automatically.
Warning: Do not interrupt the reboot process.
