Backing up and Recovering Your px6-300d Network Storage Settings
Backing Up Your px6-300d Network Storage Settings
The Configuration Backup and Restore page allows you to back up and restore system configuration
information. Backing up a configuration saves various system properties, including users, groups, device
identification, and Share names and permissions. Configuration information is saved to a file, and you can
save as many versions of the file as you want. After backing up the configuration, you can restore it to your
px6-300d at any time. You can also apply the configuration backup to other px6-300d devices, effectively
using the configuration as a template.
