Access Point configurations can be saved as data files and later used to restore the 
access point configuration. The Backup Configuration page lets you save access 
point settings in an external file. (You must have a TFTP server set up on which to 
store the backup file. This is the server specified on the TFTP setup page.)

configuration is saved to. This file will be written to the upload/download directory 
of the TFTP server. If you need to change the TFTP configuration, click the Change 
button to open the TFTP Setup page.
