of two files: foo_0_bkp and foo_1_bkp.

Destination

Specify the destination information. The backup configuration can be stored internally

on the SKM, downloaded to a browser, or copied to another machine via FTP or SCP.
If you are creating this backup in anticipation of doing a software upgrade immediately

after, we recommend that you store the backup file externally. If you download

the backup configuration to a browser, the backup configuration is encrypted and

downloaded to your local machine. You must specify a name for the file; however, it

is not necessary to specify an extension for the file. If you select FTP or SCP to copy

the backup configuration to another machine, you must provide the following:

the destination host.

the name of the file on the destination host. The file name can contain path

information.

the username of the account on the destination host.

the password for the user account on the destination host.

you restore a backup configuration you must restart your system for the changes to take effect.
