Committing Your Changes and Rebooting the Device
Committing your changes
Whenever you use the Configuration Manager to change system
settings, the changes are initially placed in temporary storage
(called random access memory or RAM). Your changes are made
effective when you submit them, but will be lost if the device is reset
or turned off.
To save your changes for future use, you can use the commit
function. This function saves your changes from RAM to permanent
storage (called flash memory).
Note
Submitting
changes activates them immediately, but saves them
only until the device is reset or powered down.
Committing
changes saves them permanently.
Follow these steps to commit changes to permanent storage.
1. Click the Admin tab, and then click
Commit & Reboot
in the
task bar.
The Commit & Reboot page displays:
Figure 7. Commit & Reboot Page
2. Click
. (Disregard the selection in the Reboot
Mode drop-down list; it does not affect the commit process.)
The changes are saved to permanent storage.
The previous settings are copied to backup storage so that they
can be recalled if your new settings do not work properly (see
the rebooting instructions on page 34).
