export file - what will be saved

RouterOS Beginner Basics
1

Hello,

when I save my settings will there be saved the whole settings (also VPN certificates and keyfiles)?

After importing the certificate I tried to delete the uploaded files and the VPN tunnel works further.

Backup saves everything, but it’s hard to work with it further (the file is “binary mess”).
Export saves stuff in easily readable format, but skips some things (users, certificates, maybe others).

Thanks.

Will the entries of the address lists also be stored in a binary-backup (the export is without address lists)?

4

Static ones will be in both backup and export, dynamic in neither.

Thanks, very much. :smiley:
