Hello. I’m exporting the configuration of a RouterBoard 1100AHx4 to a new one of the same model. However, when I import the “.rsc” file, some settings are not restored. The interfaces and vlans are restored, but the networks do not appear in ip addresses. Firewall rules are also not restored.
Why is this occurring?
RSC is not meant for exporting importing.
THe only function that does that is BACKUP and RESTORE and that is for the same device.
You can use an export to guide you manuallly configuring the new device,
and if you know what you are doing you can import chuncks of config via the TERMINAL CLI window.
And all of that while observing the CLI feedback and ptoperly react to it. Some ROS versions export config in a slightly wrong order (settings referring to items only defined in later commands), recent ROS versions are better in this aspect.
Also beware of difference in ROS versions. v7 comes with some functionality heavily overhauled and old config syntax simply doesn’t apply anymore.
