10.3 Restore Configuration
This section shows you how to restore a previously saved configuration. Note that this function erases the current
configuration before restoring a previous back up configuration; please do not attempt to restore unless you have a
backup configuration file stored on disk.
FTP is the preferred method for restoring your current computer configuration to your VES-1000 Series switch
since FTP is faster. Please note that you must wait for the system to automatically restart after the file transfer is
complete.
WARNING!
DO NOT INTERUPT THE FILE TRANSFER PROCESS AS THIS MAY PERMANENTLY DAMAGE
YOUR VES-1000 SERIES SWITCH. WHEN THE RESTORE CONFIGURATION PROCESS IS
COMPLETE, THE VES-1000 SERIES SWITCH WILL AUTOMATICALLY RESTART.
