This submenu is used for performing backup and auto backup functions.
Backup is used to create and restore backups and upload/download them from/to a PC. ARM600 contains a factory backup that can be used for reverting to the factory configuration. However, the IP addresses of network interfaces are not reverted to factory defaults. Both standard backup and full backup are configuration backups and they cannot be used for full disaster recovery.
Auto backup is used to configure ARM600 to back up the configuration to an additional standby ARM600. The data transfer method is rsync over SSH.
