Upload or restore On-Premise Appliance backups

This article applies to our On-Premise Appliance Filter and Firewall product only, not to Cloud.

 

You can restore your system settings from a previous backup point. You can create backups manually when needed, on a schedule, or by using our default backups to Cloud.

Go to System > Maintenance > Archives. You’ll see a table of all past backups, along with their sizes and the dates they were taken.

Download a backup

Select a checkbox in the Mark column, then select Download. You can only download backups one at a time.

Delete backups

Select one or multiple checkboxes in the Mark column, then select Delete.

Upload a backup

Go to the Upload heading. Enter a name, select the file, then select Upload.

Restore a backup

  1. Check if you have backups to restore. If not, follow the steps above to upload a backup.
  2. Select a checkbox in the Mark column.
  3. Select Restore.

The configuration will be applied, which can take a few minutes. Once complete, your page will refresh. For the changes to take effect, you must restart your Smoothwall.
