The best way to backup firewall settings is to use the "Configuration Backup" facility.
Select Home | Services | Configuration and follow the online help.

This allows backup of configuration to a floppy disk.

Should the server's drive fail, it will be possible to reinstall the NetMAX software on a fresh drive and use the Repair Facility to restore configuration from the floppy.

The Repair Facility can be accessed (after reinstall) by booting from the installation CD-ROM.

Use the "Remote Installation Method"- repair cannot accessed from the "Console Installation Method."
