Configuration
The ‘Configuration File’ screen enables you to restore (load a new ini file to the gateway) or to
back up (make a copy of the VoIP gateway
ini file and store it in a directory on your PC) the
current configuration the gateway is using. For information on the
ini file refer to Table 7-1 on
page 34.
Back up your configuration if you want to protect your VoIP gateway programming. The backup
ini file includes only those parameters that were modified and contain other than default values.
Restore your configuration if the VoIP gateway has been replaced or has lost its programming
information, you can restore the VoIP gateway configuration from a previous backup or from a
newly created
ini file. To restore the VoIP gateway configuration from a previous backup you
must have a backup of the VoIP gateway information stored on your PC.
¾ To restore or back up the ini file:
Open the ‘Configuration File’ screen (Advanced Configuration menu > Configuration
File
); the ‘Configuration File’ screen is displayed.
