- Confirm that you connected the new controller by selecting **Submit**.
6. Follow the steps on screen.

## Backing up your Z-Wave network

It's recommended to create a backup before making any major changes to your Z-Wave network. For example, before migrating from one controller to another, or before resetting your controller. The backup stores your Z-Wave controller's non-volatile memory (NVM), which contains your network information including paired devices. It is stored in a binary file that you can download.

### Prerequisites

- Administrator rights in Home Assistant

### To backup your Z-Wave network

1. In Home Assistant, go to {% my integrations title="**Settings** > **Devices & services**" %}.
2. Select the **Z-Wave** integration. Then, select **Configure**.
3. Under **Backup and restore**, select **Download backup**.
- **Result**: The backup file is downloaded to the device from which you initiated the download.
4. Done! Store the backup file somewhere safe in case you need it later to restore your Z-Wave network.

## Special Z-Wave entities

The Z-Wave integration provides several special entities, some of which are available for every Z-Wave device, and some of which are conditional based on the device.
