=Summary=<br />
<br />
RouterOS backup feature allows you to save your current device's configuration, which then can be re-applied on the same or a different device (with the same model name/number). This is very useful since it allows you to effortlessly restore device's configurations or to re-apply the same configuration on a backup device. System's backup file also contain the device's MAC addresses, which are also restored when the backup file is loaded.<br />
<br />
{{ Warning | If The Dude and user-manager is installed on the router, then the system backup will not contain configuration from these services, therefore additional care should be taken to save configuration from these services. Use provided tool mechanisms to save/export configuration if you want to save it. }}<br />
<br />
{{ Note | System's backups contain sensitive information about your device and its configuration, always consider encrypting the backup file and keeping the backup file in a safe place. }}<br />
