To restore your Dominion KX II:
WARNING: Exercise caution when restoring your Dominion KX II to
an earlier version. Usernames and password in place at the time of
the backup will be restored. If you do not remember the old
administrative usernames and passwords, you will be locked out of
the Dominion KX II.
In addition, if you used a different IP address at the time of the
backup, that IP address will be restored as well. If the configuration
uses DHCP, you may want to perform this operation only when you
have access to the local port to check the IP address after the update.
1. Choose the type of restore you want to run:
• Full Restore - A complete restore of the entire system. Generally
used for traditional backup and restore purposes.
• Protected Restore - Everything is restored except device-specific
information such as IP address, name, and so forth. With this option,
you can setup one Dominion KX II and copy the configuration to
multiple Dominion KX II devices.
• Custom Restore - With this option, you can select User and Group
Restore, Device Settings Restore, or both:
User and Group Restore - This option includes only user and
group information. This option does not restore the certificate
and the private key files. Use this option to quickly set up
users on a different Dominion KX II.
Device Settings Restore - This option includes only device
settings such as power associations, USB profiles, blade
chassis related configuration parameters, and Port Group
assignments. Use this option to quickly copy the device
information.
1. Click Browse. A Choose File dialog appears.
2. Navigate to and select the appropriate backup file and click Open.
The selected file is listed in the Restore File field.
3. Click Restore. The configuration (based on the type of restore
selected) is restored.
