This chapter describes the maintenance and diagnostic tools included with the Model FR314,
FR318 and FV318 Cable/DSL Firewall and VPN Routers. These tools allow you to save and
restore configuration settings, perform diagnostic tests, and upgrade your system software.

After making configuration changes or performing other tasks, you may need to restart the
firewall router.
To restart the firewall router:
From the navigation bar on the left, click Maintenance.
1.
Click Restart.

The Restart window opens.
Click the Restart button and click Yes to confirm the restart.

It takes approximately 90 seconds for the firewall router to restart, during which time Internet
access for all users on the LAN is interrupted and the Test LED is lit.

Preferences

You can use the options in the Preferences window to export the firewall router configuration
settings to a disk file, or import the settings from the file at a later time. The Preferences window
also provides options to restore the firewall router's factory default settings and to launch the Setup
Wizard.
