Backup/Restore Network

This function can be used to save a copy of the network map to a file, and then to restore the network if necessary. The settings for all the devices in the network will be saved.

A default is given for the directory and file name to be used for the backup or restore. This can be changed by typing over the default directory and/or file name or selecting the button to the right of the field containing the file name and browsing to the desired directory and file name.

To backup the current network map, select the file name to which the backup will be stored, and then press the Backup button. The network map will be saved to the chosen file, and a message will appear indicating that the network has been backed up.

To regenerate the network map from a backup file, select the name of the backup file to restore from the dialog box, and then press the Restore button. Note that this backup will replace the existing network (it does not add to the existing network).
