From the System View menu, select Configuration → Software → Remote Backup.

In the pull-down Backup To/Via: menu, select FTP.

Select a connection profile from the Profile pull-down menu and proceed to Step 5. OR Enter information for a new profile as follows:

1. In the Server panel, select IP and enter the address of the FTP server. (If the WaveStar^® CIT is the FTP server, you can determine its IP address by entering ipconfig from the MS DOS prompt on your PC.)

2. If necessary, enter the port (default is blank). Defining the port is not required for the backup to execute successfully. However, a value of 21 is valid if entered.

3. In the User panel, enter the user name and password for the FTP server. (If you are using the WaveStar^® CIT as your FTP server, the default user name/password for the WaveStar^® CIT is LUC01/LUC+01, however your user name/password may be different.)

If you entered connection information in Step 3 and wish to keep the information for future backups:

1. Enter a new name in the Profile menu.

2. Click Add to add the profile to the list.

3. Click Save to save the list.

Entries to the Profile pull-down menu may be changed using the Modify, Apply, and Save buttons or removed using the Delete button.

In the Source/Destination Directory Path field, enter backups/<filename> if you wish to save the backup file to the default location. (If the WaveStar^® CIT is the FTP server, a maximum of 80 characters is suggested for this field.)

You may also click the Browse button next to the Path: field to browse to any directory on your PC and over-write the default entry. The Browse button is not available (greyed out) if the FTP server is not the local WaveStar^® CIT.

The value of the Path field can be either an absolute path or a relative path that is relative to the FTP server root directory.

• The absolute path must start with the drive name followed by a colon (:) then the path name. For example: C:/Program Files/Alcatel-Lucent/WaveStar CIT/backups/<subdirectory>/<filename>. If you had an older version of the WaveStar^® CIT installed prior to installing the current WaveStar^®, your path could start with C:/Program Files/Lucent Technologies/WaveStar CIT/.

• The relative path must start with the path name. For example: /backups/<subdirectory>/<filename>.

If you wish to store your data in a subdirectory within the default path, you may enter backups/<subdirectory>/<filename> if the subdirectory exists before the command is sent. Directories will not be created by this command, and therefore the command will be denied if any directory in the path does not already exist.

If necessary, replace 7.2.2 with your current release, for example 7.2.3.

If the FTP server is not the WaveStar^® CIT, then enter the path starting at the FTP home directory on the server.

Click OK.

You will be asked to verify that you wish to backup to the directory that you entered above. Click Yes if you entered the path correctly.

Result:

The Progress Indicator appears to indicate that the backup is in progress. When the backup completes, a WaveStar^® CIT information screen appears that indicates Remote Backup Successful. Click OK. The backup file is now stored. If the default path and a subdirectory were used, the file may be found at:

C:/Program Files/Alcatel-Lucent/WaveStar CIT/backups/<subdirectory>/<filename>

If you had an older version of the WaveStar^® CIT installed prior to installing the current WaveStar^®, your path could start with C:/Program Files/Lucent Technologies/WaveStar CIT/.
