9.1 Backup and Restore

  1. Go to System > Backup & Restore and click Download Backup.
  2. Store the file safely — it contains your full configuration, including secrets like VPN keys.
  3. To restore, upload the same file on this tab.

Note

Backup files are signed (HMAC) so the gateway can detect a corrupted or tampered file before restoring it.

A full administration menu is available over SSH or a direct console connection, using the same accounts and roles as the Web UI. Option numbers stay consistent regardless of which role is viewing.
