Important notes:
- Backup files can be uploaded only if they are taken from an identical device (identical Product code (can be checked in the Status → [[{{{name}}} System|System]] page)) with identical or older firmware.
- It is important to remember that the backup file not only changes the device configuration, but also the password. If you are unsure of the backup file's password, you may want to reconsider uploading it because you may lose access to device.
