11.2 Backup Configuration

Option 5 from Menu 24 - System Maintenance allows you to backup the current Prestige configuration to
your computer. Backup is highly recommended once your Prestige is functioning properly. FTP is the
preferred method, although TFTP can also be used.

Please note that the terms “download” and “upload” are relative to the computer. Download means to
transfer from the Prestige to the computer, while upload means from your computer to the Prestige.
