Upon selecting the backup type option, you will be requested to confirm the
request. After confirmation, a message is displayed indicating that the backup file
creation is in process. Upon successful completion of the process, a completion
message will be displayed.
If a backup file of the same type already exists in the NPU, you will be asked
whether to overwrite the existing file. If there was an error in the process of
creating a backup file, an error message will be displayed, specifying the reason.
After the backup file has been created, it can be uploaded using a DOS based
TFTP Client application to a target directory. To upload the file, use the command:
tftp -i <Port IP address> get <file name> <destination address>.
The default file name is:
Full: backup.res.
Profiles: profiles.res
Profiles and Services: profiles_srvcs.res
Filtering: filtering.res
Traps: Traps_Config.res
BS License File: BSLicense_<Management Port MAC Address>.res
The file is encrypted and cannot be edited. However, it can be downloaded to other
NPU(s) using a DOS based TFTP Client application with the command:
tftp-i <Port IP address> put <file name>.
The target NPU will decrypt the backup file, extract all the configuration files and
databases and will store them, replacing existing files/databases. The NPU should
be reset to apply the downloaded configuration.
To upload/download the Backup File:
NOTE
To avoid loss of connectivity behind a router, the basic IP parameters of the MGMT and DATA ports
(IP Address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway) are not changed when loading a Full backup file to the
NPU. The values of these parameters configured in the target NPU before the loading process, are
maintained.
