# Backup & Restore

## Generating a New Backup

Users can create a new Network-wide setting and device  backup by going to  **Organizations > Backup & Restore**&#x20;

* **Restore:** This allows you to restore all settings( Network-wide settings and Device settings) to the corresponding network.&#x20;
* **Protect:** This allows you to protect the backup, so the backup will not be rotated when you exceed 2 backups of the network.&#x20;
* **Re-Backup:** This allows you to update the current settings to the backup of the corresponding

  &#x20;network.&#x20;

## Clone Network

When creating a new network you have the option to clone the configuration from another network. This will copy all network-wide configurations from the existing network with the exception of local device configurations.

## 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://doc.engenius.ai/home-cloud-user-manual/managing-organizations/backup-and-restore.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.
