Saving Versions of
Network Plans
You can save multiple versions of a network plan. After deploying a
network plan to a WX switch, you can save a snapshot of the plan as a
version. Create versions of the network plan on a regular basis and at
every major baseline event for network configurations. Doing so allows
you to have snapshots of network configurations should you need to
revert to one of them.

If you need to roll back configuration changes, you can use a saved
version to roll back the system software image and configuration files to
a known state. Before you can save a version of a network plan, you need
to deploy and save the network plan. Versions of network plans are saved
in the db/xml/versions directory in the 3WXM installation directory.
