CLI: Config: Import/Export

You can export a configuration image containing all configured parameters. This image can be imported by the system, letting you make a backup of your system configuration before making major changes, or to aid in some types of deployment. If you execute a system initialization from the cli, you can select to keep your configuration upon re-initialization. However, historical traffic information is not part of the exported configuration and is therefore not recoverable.

To access the Configuration Import / Export feature, enter cli in an SSH session on the appliance, and at the prompt enter config export <filename>. The configuration is saved using the filename given. Similarly, import the configuration by entering config import <filename>.

Note: Because configurations can change from version to version of the product, importing a configuration exported from an older version of WebApp Secure can fail.
