Synchronizing to the StrataSync server
As the process runs, the sync state is displayed on the screen.
• Upon synchronization with the StrataSync server, the unit will
send to the server the following information:
–
–
–
–
–
–
• The server will then send any files to the unit being synchronized
that it determines are newer than those on the unit.
• The unit will then send any Reports, Configuration profiles, XML
results, screen shots, etc. that have been saved on the unit since
the last configuration.
• The server then applies any applicable Options to the unit.
NOTE:
If an Option Code was entered as a part of synchronization, power must
be cycled to the unit to complete the process and initialize the option.
• Copy ("clone") the configuration settings for the base unit, as well
as any company-specific configurations such as custom filters,
web bookmarks, and FTP passwords. This can be used to create
a "golden" unit.
