The SmartZone platform includes a feature set for managing system backups, located in the web interface under Administration > Backup & Restore. This section allows an administrator to perform on-demand backups and, crucially, to schedule automatic, periodic backups of the cluster's configuration data, events, and statistics. The overall function of creating, scheduling, and managing these backups is best described as Backup Management. This ensures that a recent, valid configuration is always available for restoration in case of system failure or misconfiguration.

A. System Snapshot Scheduler: A System Snapshot is a full system image for disaster recovery, which is distinct from a standard configuration backup. This is not the name of the feature for scheduling routine configuration backups.

C. Cluster Maintenance Policy: This feature is used to schedule maintenance windows for activities like controller reboots or firmware upgrades, not for performing configuration backups.

D. Configuration Archive: This term describes the collection or repository of saved backup files, rather than the feature or tool used to schedule their automatic creation.

1. RUCKUS SmartZone 6.1.0 Administrator Guide (Part Number: 800-73043-001 Rev A), Chapter 11: Administering the System, Section: "Scheduling Backups", Page 291. This section explicitly states, "You can schedule SmartZone to perform backups automatically at regular intervals. Go to Administration > Backup & Restore." This confirms the location and purpose of the scheduling feature, which falls under the general function of "Backup Management."

2. RUCKUS SmartZone 5.2.1 Administrator Guide (Part Number: 800-72294-001 Rev B), Chapter 11: Administering the System, Section: "Backing Up and Restoring the System", Page 261. This guide distinguishes between a "Cluster Backup" (configuration, events, etc.) and a "System Snapshot" (entire system image), clarifying why option A is incorrect. The scheduling function applies to the Cluster Backup.
