avoid manual configuration or reconfiguration.
NOTE: User account information is stored in the user configuration file. See "Managing user databases" on
page 56.

1. Log into the Web interface as a user with Appliance Administrator rights.
2. Click the Tools tab. The Tools window appears.
3. Click the Save Appliances Configuration button. The Save Appliance Configuration
window appears.
