The Configuration Restore card automatically takes a snapshot of the current device configuration whenever you make a change to your Datto Networking Appliance's settings. Configuration backups only occur when a new change is saved.

The Edit field allows you to set a custom name for each restore point. The Restore button restores the device's configuration to the state it was in when the snapshot was taken. Clicking on X will remove the configuration backup from the DNA.
