[00:00] In this lesson, we're going to take a look at how to restore a gateway backup. You'll need to be logged into the gateway where you want to have the restoration process take place. From the homepage, you would navigate to the platform tab and expand system, and click on backup and restore. On this tab, we can download a backup of our current gateway, which we do recommend doing before restoring a backup file. Since this change alters the entire state of our gateway, it's always best to ensure that we have a way to get back to our original configuration. Once we have the backup of our current gateway, we can move over to the restore tab. Here we can set some options about how the gateway restore process will work. Checking off, restore disabled will disable all projects and connections upon the restore. Next, you can choose to disable the temp gateway backup, which is a gateway backup of your current configuration prior to restoring.

[01:03] This isn't a long-term solution, however, so we still do recommend taking your own backup before restoring. Below this, you are able to override the name of the gateway and type in your own in the text box. Finally, we can choose to restore only local configuration files. This will restore files that are intended for use in a specific gateway, such as host name specific certificates. Once your settings are configured, you can choose the backup file to restore from, with this choose file button. After selecting the file, you can execute the restore by clicking on restore gateway. In the top right, we'll get this warning message asking us if we are sure we want to continue, and we can click on restore gateway from backup. The gateway will shut down and restart with the new configurations. As we wait for the gateway to come back up, I'll mention that just like making backups, we can also perform a backup restore via the gateway command utility.

[02:01] I've included a link below this lesson for accessing the utility and using those commands. Once the gateway is back up and the restore is complete, you should see this success message in the top right of your screen.
