Yes... Sorry!

We recommend to always save a backup before any upgrade,
and to add the version digits to your filename, in case you need
to revert back to previous version, you will have a previous config...

Ruckus have to flexible downgrade.

If for downgrading from 10.1 to 10.0, though we do config-bakcup of 10.1, we don't restore it to 10.0 because ZD don;t provide downward compatible about config.

If we diretly to install to 10.1, and we need to downgrade 10.0, we only have to do reconfiguration.

It's very inflexible.

Hi Jeronimo,

If you *do* save a backup before performing an upgrade, as we recommend/suggest,
the ZD will acknowledge that you have a config from the previous version (ie 10.0) if you
do a "downgrade" (upgrade to earlier version code) and ask if you want to use it.

You only lose the configuration if you downgrade but didn't have a saved configuration.
Hopefully, it was saved before upgrading as advised/recommended, as it would need to
be restored if config is lost by downgrading.
