Migrate config from a router to a slightly different

RouterOS General
1

Hi,

I want to move from a 2011UiAS-2HnD to a 2011UiAS-RM (both on v6.26).
The question is: how to do this?

  • Backup/Restore: Have read that this is only for exact the same router (not even a router of same type)
  • Export verbose: Can´t import, tried it by /system reset-configuration keep-users=no no-defaults=yes skip-backup=yes run-after-reset=fullexport.rsc. System is resetted but comes up with no config at all. I guess the missing wireless causes this problem
  • Export compact: Comes up after reset but there is some config missing (Identitiy, Users, SNTP client, LCD settings, ???)

So what´s the way to go? Export compact would be okay if I would know which settings else are missing.

Thanks
Martin

Finally found the problem - the compact export is complete (except users but i guess this is the way designed). But the import failed because I disabeld the guest Samba user a few versions before and this is not longer possible.
So the import after reset failed at this point. Had to reset without defaults and without import and connect by MAC and run import verbose to figure this out.
