Routers
The backups of current router configurations. In the overview we can see alphabetically ordered routers; if we speak about the MirkoTik or Flash Linux routers (The MikroTik backups are comprised of the configuration commands, the Flash Linux backups keep the settings of the network interfaces). The date of the last backup, if the date of the last backup is written in red colour, the backup is then older that five days. Then also the IP address of the router and the number of backups of each router.
You will do the setting in the bookmark of Settings / System settings / Public where you will allow backups of the router configurations and where you will set the number of archived backups. Then you will only watch automatical backups of the routers configurations.
MikroTik routers backups
Text backup
Upon clicking on the button of "Details", you will display an overview of backed-up sections of the configuration ( Export, IP/Firewall, IP/Address, IP/Route ), you can see also the individual backups of a selected router. After having displayed individual parts, you can easily import the text into the router by means of the SSH, or only for example insert it through the terminal in Winbox. The Save button can also save the text backup into your computer or a USB keyring for a later use.
Binary backup
Binary backup - It is also possible to download a binary backup of the configuration, which may very simply be applicable for restoring of the system. In case of saving the backup, the size of the backed-up file will be shown. By clicking on a relevant icon, the backup will be saved to the local disc. The backup may later be easily loaded to the MikroTik by "dragging" it from the local disc through the Winbox window into the "Files" bookmark. The complete router configuration will be then restored by selecting the backup from the Winbox and by clicking on the "restore" button.
- The files with the binary backups of the MikroTik router configurations are saved on the server in the /data/support/ispadmin/mk_backup/ directory
