1. What credential should I input when I set up the Backup Center and try to login for the first time?
The default credential for the Backup Center Console is listed below.
User name: admin
Password: admin
2. Can I restore the backup from the Backup Center?
Currently, the Backup Center mainly works as a console to help users create and deploy backup tasks to clients. The actual backup and restoration tasks are executed by the Todo Backup clients. When users would like to restore a backup, they’ll have to log on the client to execute a restoration.
3. In case a client backup task fails, how do I troubleshoot the issue?
A brief log will be auto-created on the Backup Center Logs section. To help our support to get more information, users are recommended to log on the client and send the EaseUS Todo Backup client error report to our support to solve the issue.
For how to create the error report on the client, please refer to:

Users can add a client by Full Name or IP address on condition that the Todo Backup client and the related management component are both installed on the client.
5. Which type of backup tasks can I create and deploy via Backup Center?
EaseUS Backup Center can create and deploy tasks including System Backup, Disk/Volume Backup and File Backup. Although users can not create and deploy SQL or Exchange Backup tasks though Backup Center, they can create and run advanced SQL/Exchange Backup tasks on the Todo Backup clients activated via EaseUS Backup Center Advanced Server or Technician version.
6. Can Backup Center manage the tasks created on the clients?
Backup Center can only manage the tasks created and deployed through the Backup Center.
7. Can EaseUS Backup Center manage clients over WAN or it works only for clients in the same LAN?

9. Which ports does the Backup Center tool use to communicate with the clients?
The Backup Center communicates with the clients on ports 4700 and 4698 by default. Users are recommended to keep these ports idle to ensure the clients can communicate smoothly with the Backup Center.
