Figure 8-11. Restore In Progress Confirmation
Step 3.
To proceed with the restore, click Continue.
As part of the restore operation, the system is restarted. You will be required to log in again as
administrator.
Transferring a Backup to a Different System
There may be situations were you want to transfer the configuration from one Access Control Server to
another, such as to use the original configuration as the starting point for additional configuration
changes you want to verify in a test-bed environment, or to replicate a configuration for installation on a
different part of your network.
If you create and save a backup on one system, and then restore it to a different system, the restore
reconfigures the new system to exactly match the original (backed-up) system’s configuration, including
its network configuration, with two exceptions:
• The uplink port will not be changed on the new (restored to) unit, but will remain as configured. This
is to avoid accidently changing an uplink port into a downlink port.
For example, if the backed-up system used a option card gigabit port as the uplink, and the new
system uses the default uplink, after a restore the new system will still be configured to use the
default uplink. If you want to reconfigure the restored system to use a different uplink port, you
must use the “set uplink” command through the CLI.
• If the new (restored to) unit is a 700wl Series system, the port power settings will also not be changed
on the new system, but will remain as configured. This is to avoid accidently enabling power on a port
to which a non-power-capable device is connected, or changing the polarity (from +48
VDC to -48VDC)
on a port.
