The File > Save Configuration As command allows you to save a configuration a file on the Manager computer. Note that dynamic configuration data, for example hunt groups advertised from other systems in a network, are not included in a configuration file saved onto PC and then reopened.

The command displays the Save As window. Select the drive and directory. and then enter the new file name. Once you have entered the file name, the Save Configuration File window opens, where you have the option to encrypt the file by entering a password. Leave the password blank if you do not want to encrypt the file.

Configurations saved onto the PC in this way can be reopened using the icon or the File > Offline > Open File command. If the file has been encrypted, you must enter the password.

When Manager is running in Server Edition mode, the Save command operates differently. Multiple files are saved, one .cfg file for each server in the network plus a single .cfi file for the whole network.

The .cfi file can be used with the File > Offline > Open File Set command to open the whole set of files in a single action.
