Hi friends, I worked for a lot of time in the configuration of the DFL-800, then I unplug the power this for place it in other place. Well, when I turn on the firewall, $%/#")#, I lost the configuration!!!

Configuration changes are never applied until they have been saved and activated, if you lose power before that time they will lose all your changes.

Remember, you have to login after saving changes to avoid the firewall reverting changes.

This mechanism its to prevent some change leaving the admin without access to the firewall

Personally i love this function, avoid the problem of losing contact whit the firewall losing hours of config
