Backing Up and Restoring Configurations
The STM150 provides backup and restore features to ensure speedy recovery from system errors
or configuration on an additional STM150 appliance with the same language and management
software versions. Access the backup and restore functions at Administration > Settings Backup &
Restore.
The backup feature saves all the STM150 settings to a file. These settings include:
• Network settings – IP address, subnet mask, gateway, etc.
• Scan settings – Services to scan, primary and secondary actions, etc.
• Update settings – Update source, frequency, etc.
• Anti-spam settings – Whitelist, blacklist, content filtering settings, etc.
Backing Up the STM150 Configuration
Back up your STM150 settings periodically and store the backup file in a safe place.
Tip: You can use a backup file to export all settings to another STM150 appliance that
has the same language and management software versions. Remember to change the
IP address of the second STM150 appliance before deploying it to eliminate IP
address conflicts on the network.
