Managing backup configurations in ETM Dashboard

Overview

ETM Dashboard enables you to automatically backup configuration data from appliances connected to your account. After an appliance performs at least one backup to ETM Dashboard, you can use the backup file as a Configuration Template, or you can restore it to the same appliance.

Backups are generated and uploaded automatically in Micro Edge. In NG Firewall, this functionality requires the Configuration Backup app.

1. Go to the Appliances tab.
2. Select the appliance from the appliances list.
3. Find the Cloud Backups Widget.
4. Select a backup file by date and click Restore Backup.
5. Click Yes to confirm.
