System: Backup/Restore

It is a good practice to backup your Machine’s Data and Configurations just in case anything goes wrong when doing any of the following actions such as; 

• Upgrading/downgrading to a software version
• Replace SD Card 
• Reflash SD Card

Here are the  options that you can choose to include in your Backup:

• Backup Database
  This includes data of wifi users, customers, sessions, vouchers, eload providers, eload promos, eload purchases and sales inventory.
• Backup Captive Portal
  This includes captive portal settings, images, html and css files, change history and variants. 
  
  If you have multiple machines or are planning to add more, you can choose to back up just the “Captive Portal” settings and use the same settings on the other wifi vending machines. That way, you don’t have to redo the process of setting/customizing your captive portal. 
• Backup System Settings
  This includes configuration files for accounts, sessions, rates, coinslots, bill acceptors, bandwidth, cron schedules, network interfaces, plugin data, and admin logo.

And here are the options that you can include when uploading the Backup Data/Configurations File:

• Restore Database
• Restore Captive Portal
• Restore System Settings
• Restore Admin Accounts
• Restore Network Settings
• Restore Plugin Data
