There are two types of firewalls to consider:
●Host-based firewalls—Software that protects only the tablet it is installed on.
●Network-based firewalls—Installed between your DSL or cable modem and your home network
to protect all the tablets on the network.
When a firewall is installed on a system, all data sent to and from the system is monitored and
compared with a set of user-defined security criteria. Any data that does not meet those criteria is
blocked.

							11 Backing up, restoring, and recovering
This chapter provides information about the following processes:
●Creating recovery media and backups
●Restoring and recovering your system
Creating recovery media and backups
1.After you successfully set up the tablet, create HP Recovery media. This step creates a backup
of the HP Recovery partition on the tablet. The backup can be used to reinstall the original
operating system in cases where the hard drive is corrupted or has been replaced.
HP Recovery media you create will provide the following recovery options:
●System Recovery—Reinstalls the original operating system and the programs that were
installed at the factory.
●Factory Reset—Restores the tablet to its original factory state by deleting all information
from the hard drive and re-creating the partitions. Then it reinstalls the operating system
and the software that was installed at the factory.
See 
Creating HP Recovery media on page 46.
2.Use the Windows tools to create system restore points and create backups of personal
information. For more information and steps, see Help and Support. From the Start screen, type
help, and then select Help and Support.
Creating HP Recovery media
HP Recovery Manager is a software program that offers a way to create recovery media after you
successfully set up the tablet. HP Recovery media can be used to perform system recovery if the
hard drive becomes corrupted. System recovery reinstalls the original operating system and the
software programs installed at the factory, and then configures the settings for the programs. HP
Recovery media can also be used to customize the system or restore the factory image if you replace
the hard drive.
●Only one set of HP Recovery media can be created. Handle these recovery tools carefully, and
keep them in a safe place.
●HP Recovery Manager examines the tablet and determines the required storage capacity for the
blank USB flash drive or the number of blank DVD discs that will be required.
●If your tablet does not include an integrated optical drive with DVD writer capability, but you
would like to create DVD recovery media, you can use an external optical drive (purchased
separately) to create recovery discs, or you can obtain recovery discs for your tablet from
support. If you create your own recovery discs, you must use only high-quality blank DVD-R,
DVD+R, DVD-R DL, or DVD+R DL discs. Do not use rewritable discs such as CD±RW, DVD
±RW, double-layer DVD±RW, or BD-RE (rewritable Blu-ray) discs; they are not compatible with
HP Recovery Manager software.See the 
Worldwide Telephone Numbers booklet included with
the tablet. You can also find contact information from the HP website. Go to
