Configuration data snapshots contain information such as certificates and keys, which can be misused to gain unauthorized access to Avaya SBC.
You can restore a snapshot to the same Avaya SBC product version on an EMS of the same hardware group. When restoring the snapshot, it is recommended that the EMS server is configured with the same management IP used when the snapshot was created. If the EMS server hardware group or the Avaya SBC product version does not match, the restore operation will fail, and the system settings will revert to the earlier state.
Before you begin
Ensure the following:
  • The selected storage directory on the designated remote server is accessible only to authorized users.
  • The snapshot server uses SFTP.
  • The storage directory does not have read, write, or execute permissions for unauthorized users.
