Backup and restore of Gateway configuration

Last Updated : Sep 23, 2020 |

Backup configuration can only be restored to a gateway that is in the same mode as the one on which the backup is taken.The following rules apply when you backup or restore configuration :

  • Backup made in non-FIPS approved mode can only be restored to a gateway in non-FIPS approved mode.

  • Backup made in FIPS approved mode can only be restored to the same gateway.

  • In addition, backup made in FIPS approved mode can no longer be restored if the nvram init or zeroize CLI commands are executed, or if FIPS approved mode is disabled at any time after the backup has been made.

Avaya™ recommends that you obtain a complete copy of the gateway’s current running configuration before enabling or disabling FIPS approved mode.

For more information about the backup and restore commands, see Avaya Branch Gateway G430 CLI Reference and Avaya Branch Gateway G450 CLI Reference.
