Have a question or an idea? Please search it on our forum to make sure it was not yet asked. If you cannot find what you had in mind, please submit it here.

Prerequisites

I am running the latest version

Problem Description

I have 2 unused computers so I installed AdGuardHome on both computers (let the first computer = A and the second computer = B)
On computer A I edited adguard home settings and I want to sync the settings to computer B, I can just copy the YAML config file to computer B but it's inconvenient.

Proposed Solution

I'm suggesting make an option on the web panel to download config. So I can go into the web panel on computer A and download the config file, then on computer B web panel load the config I downloaded.

Alternatives Considered

Make both computer settings sync so I can have a primary and secondary DNS servers (In case I have to shut down computer A all devices on my network will use computer B as secondary DNS server)

Additional Information

This can be useful as backup too, in case you messed up the settings you can choose to restore from the previous config file or reset all settings
