Chapter 6: Setting up and Configuring the Router

System Management Tab - Restart

System Management Tab - Restart

If you need to restart the Router, it is highly recommended that you use the Restart tool on this screen. When you

restart from the Restart screen, then the Router will send out your log file before it is reset.

Before restarting the Router, decide which firmware version you want the Router to use. The Active Firmware

Version is the one currently used by the Router. The Backup Firmware Version may be the same as the active one,

or it may be an older version if you have upgraded the Router’s firmware. Select which firmware version you want

the Router to use, the Active Firmware Version or Backup Firmware Version. Then click the Restart Router

button to restart the Router.

System Management Tab - Setting Backup

This screen allows you to make a backup file of your preferences file for the Router. To save the backup file, you

need to export the configuration file. To use the preferences file, you need to import the configuration file.

Import Configuration File

To import a configuration file, first specify where your preferences file is located. Click the Browse button, and a

dialog box will appear and ask you to select the appropriate configuration file. After you select the file, click the

Import button. This process may take up to a minute. Then you will need to restart the Router so the changes will

take effect.

Export Configuration File

To export the Router’s current configuration file, click the Export button, and a dialog box will appear and ask you

to select a location where you would like to store your preferences file. This file will be called RV016.exp by

default, but you may rename it if you wish. This process may take up to a minute.
