Network Security adds a timestamp to the filename to ensure uniqueness.

Note: SuperUsers and Administrators can back up a configuration using a
compact flash card (CR); StandardUsers and RestrictedUsers cannot. See
groups reference" on page 319 for more about permissions.
Restoring from compact flash
SuperUsers can restore a previous configuration to a single slave node, a set of
slave nodes, or to the entire cluster by first restoring the slave nodes, then
restoring the master node.
The restore process includes both per-node and cluster-wide configuration
information. You must restore each node individually to get the per-node
configuration. Cluster-wide configuration is synchronized from the master to
the slave nodes.
If the compact flash card is mounted, SuperUsers can choose from backup files
on both the compact flash and the hard drive during the restore process.
To restore an old configuration using compact flash
1 In the Network Security console, click Admin > Node > Manage Backups.
2 In Select Node, choose a node from the pull-down list, and click OK.
3 In Backups, click a backup filename.
4 In Action, click Restore Selected Backup > Yes.
This will restart the node, and overwrite all configuration changes that were
made since the backup.
Note: SuperUsers and Administrators can restore a configuration using a
compact flash card (CF); StandardUsers and RestrictedUsers cannot. See
groups reference" on page 319 for more about permissions.
Saving initial configuration
You can save an appliance's configuration information onto the hard drive or
