Backing Up Electronic Labels
Context
If a network fault occurs, you can rapidly learn about hardware information using electronic labels, improving hardware maintenance efficiency. In addition, information in electronic labels of faulty hardware enables you to analyze and trace hardware defects.
Before replacing hardware in batches, you can obtain accurate hardware deployment information based on information in the electronic labels recorded in the archive systems of customers' devices. This information enables you to evaluate the impact of hardware replacement and define policies to efficiently replace hardware in batches.
Electronic labels can be backed up to a file server or the local flash memory. Before backing up electronic labels to a file server, ensure that the device and file server can communicate. The file server can be an FTP or SFTP server. SFTP is recommended for high-security scenarios because FTP cannot ensure secure file transfer.
