Overview of Backup and Restore Operations
Back Up the Configuration Settings
Restore the Configuration Settings from Backup
Performing Disaster Recovery

Use the backup and restore procedures to:

  • Capture network-specific configuration settings of an Edge 8000 device.
    The backup and restore commands back up and restore all the applications active in the device, including the Analog Manager, the 6Wind Router, and the SBC SWe Edge.
  • Restore the configuration settings as part of the Software Upgrades and Disaster Recovery.

Attention

Ribbon highly recommends storing the backups at an off-site location to ensure the recovery of the backups in the event of an on-site disaster.

Tip

When performing a backup or recovery from backup, remember you can always enter the sys-tools help command from the CLI prompt. The response gives a list of available commands, with the proper syntax and a brief explanation of each command.

[sysadm@8000 ~]$ sudo -i
[sudo] password for sysadm:
[root@8000 ~]# sys-tools help
