Committing Your Changes and Rebooting the Device 
Committing your changes 
Whenever you use the Configuration Manager to change system 
settings, the changes are initially placed in temporary storage 
(called random access memory or RAM). Your changes are made 
effective when you submit them, but will be lost if the device is reset 
or turned off.  
To save your changes for future use, you can use the commit 
function. This function saves your changes from RAM to permanent 
storage (called flash memory). 
 
Note 
Submitting changes activates them immediately, but saves them 
only until the device is reset or powered down. Committing 
changes saves them permanently. 
 
Follow these steps to commit changes to permanent storage. 
1.  Click the Admin tab, and then click 
Commit & Reboot 
in the 
task bar. 
The Commit & Reboot page displays: 
 
Figure 16. Commit & Reboot Page 
 
2. Click 
. (Disregard the selection in the Reboot 
Mode drop-down list; it does not affect the commit process.) 
The changes are saved to permanent storage.  
The previous settings are copied to backup storage so that they 
can be recalled if your new settings do not work properly (see
 
the rebooting instructions on page 41).
