Configuration Backup and Restore

Configuration settings include both the Threat Discovery Appliance and Network Configuration settings. You can back up the settings by exporting them to an encrypted file. You can then import the file to restore settings in case of a problem.

You can also reset Threat Discovery Appliance by restoring the default settings that shipped with the product.

Take note of the following:

Most or all settings on the following screens are not backed up:
Threat Management Services Portal
Mitigation Devices
Mitigation Exclusion List
Security Compliance
Trend Micro Control Manager
Network Interface Settings
Licenses and Activation Codes
Smart Protection Settings in the Web Reputation screen
The encrypted file cannot be modified.
Importing an encrypted file overwrites all the current settings on Threat Discovery Appliance.
The encrypted file can also be used to replicate settings on another Threat Discovery Appliance.
