# Backup & Restore

Backups and system restores are carried out via the web interface. Under the tab “System->Maintenance” you will find the menu “Backup” menu (<https://192.168.2.1/system/maintenance/backup>).

#### Create Backup:

Backups can be created in the view using the “Create” button. You can then download the created backup via “download” and store it on the local system (it is recommended to activate the encryption via “Encrypt”). The backup file is located in the download folder and should be stored in a safe place.

In the “Restore Configuration” area, a locally stored backup can be restored via “Browse”.

#### System recovery without firmware reset:

If no firmware reset has been performed a previously saved backup can be restored using the "Upload Archive" function. The modem must then be restarted.

#### System restore with firmware reset:

If a firmware reset was previously performed the Edge AIP software must be installed. To do this follow the instructions in the article "[Installation after firmware reset](/edge-aip-2.0/en/installation-nach-firmware-reset.md)". You can then restore the backup via "Upload Archive". During the system restore the settings of the Edge AIP as well as the access data are reset and must be adjusted in the AIP if necessary.

It cannot be guaranteed that all setting options of the device can be completely restored.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.videc.de/edge-aip-2.0/en/backup-und-systemwiederherstellung.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
