How can I do to copy identical configuration from one router to another with different hardware ?.
Thanks
‘/Export’ command exports router entire configuration, you have to change appropriate interface settings (MAC-address), in order to import successfully configuration to another machine.
As well you can export specific configuration section (‘ip firewall filter’, etc.), but matchers name should exists (e.g. in-interface name, ip firewall address-list name, etc.).
/export file=“filename” does give a very good image of your system. But you’ll need to edit the file to create a master since the order of commands is all wrong.

Ok, I understand, I need make an export and then change the ethernet mac address ?, only that ?, another change ?. The “backup” have the same number of ethernet cards.
Thanks !
You have to do more.
The commands the “export” produces are usually in the wrong order. I.e. commands to add a port to a bridge could occur before the command to create this bridge etc.

that is exactly what I wish to have in version 3.0…
a backup cloned router that will synchronize all setting from A to Z with the master and upon its failure it will take the position
What do you recommend me ?
you don’t have any other choice except COPY/PASTE the export at this point of time…
Understood, thanks !
Hi, I make the backup but when I replace for the original doesn’t work, 2 of my 6 BGP sessions they are in ACTIVE state.
I make a copy line by line and don’t forget nothing, what it can be happening ??
Thanks a lot.
