• Only one administrator can save the configuration at a moment. If one administrator saves the
configuration while the system is saving the configuration as required by another administrator, the
system prompts the second administrator to try later.
• The configuration of the device is the same when the device runs in different operation modes. If you
save the configuration, the configuration overwrites the original configuration file. To configure the
operation mode of the device, go to Device Management > Device Basic > Operation Mode. For
more information, see Getting Started Guide.
382BProcedures
This module supports saving the configuration in either of the following two modes: fast or common.
To save the configuration in fast mode, click the Save button at the upper right of the auxiliary area.
Figure 21 Saving the configuration
To save the configuration in common mode:
1. Select Device Management > Maintenance from the navigation tree.
The Save page appears, as shown in
748HFigure 21.
2. To encrypt the configuration file, select Encrypt the configuration file.
3. Click Apply.
189BBacking up the next-startup configuration file
Configuration file backup allows administrators to:
• View the next-startup configuration file (including .cfg and .xml files).
• Back up the next-startup configuration file (including .cfg and .xml files) to the PC of the current user.
IMPORTANT:
HP recommends backing up both the .cfg and .xml configuration files. If you back up only the .cfg
configuration file, some configuration information might not be restored when, for example, the
configuration is mistakenly removed.
To back up the next-startup configuration:
1. Select Device Management > Maintenance from the navigation tree.
2. Click the Backup tab.
