used for this task, read

Backup configuration file (page 29)

.

Configuration is complete

Now that you have completed the basic configuration process you can proceed to connecting your
LAN devices to the BSGX4e LAN ports. See

Figure 2

(

page 11

) and

Table 1

(

page 9

) for

reference.

Note: Most network equipment is “plug-n-play” in that they perform a self-configuration when you
connect them to the BSGX4e. However, some devices may require manual configuration. Check the
literature that accompanies the devices.

You are now ready to use your network equipment with the BSGX4e.

Backup configuration file

The configuration process you just completed with the Initial Setup Wizard stores the
configuration parameters in the BSGX4e’s memory. As with any computer device, there is some
possibility of memory corruption. To avoid having to repeat the configuration process if this
occurs, you can export a configuration file to your PC. Then, if the BSGX4e loses its
configuration, you can import the configuration file for complete recovery. Follow the steps below
to perform this task.

Creating a configuration file requires you to go into the Web UI (User Interface), which is that
Web page you see behind the Initial Setup Wizard pages.
