Custom ruleset backup and restore¶
To protect yourself from accidentally misconfigured or deleted rules, you can backup your current custom ruleset.
There are the following rule backup options:
-
Automatic backup creation after each custom ruleset build. The number of automatic backups is limited to 7: for each day when you change the rules several times, only the last backup is kept.
-
Manual backup creation at any time. The number of manual backups is limited to 5 by default. If you need more, contact the Wallarm technical support team.
You can:
-
Access current backups: in the Rules section, click Backups.
-
Create a new backup manually: in the Backups window, click Create backup.
-
Set name and description for the manual backup and edit them at any moment.
Naming for automatic backups
The automatic backups are named by the system and cannot be renamed.
-
Load from existing backup: click Load for the required backup. When loading from the backup, your current rule configuration is deleted and replaced with the configuration from the backup.
-
Delete backup.
Rule modification restrictions
You cannot create or modify rules until creating backup or load from backup is complete.
