Exporting Firewall Policy 
You may not always want or need to export all aspects of the ISA Server 2004 firewall 
configuration. For example, you may have problems with your Access Policies and want 
someone to view them for you. You can export the firewall’s current Access Policies and send 
the export file to an ISA Server 2004 professional who can quickly import the policies into a 
test machine and troubleshoot the problem. 
In the following example we will export the VPN Clients configuration to a file. Perform the 
following steps to export the VPN Clients configuration: 
1. In 
the 
Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration Server 2004 management 
console, expand your server name in the left pane of the console and then right click on 
the Virtual Private Networks (VPN) node. Click on the Export VPN Clients 
Configuration
 command. 
2. In 
the 
Export Configuration dialog box, enter a name for the export file in the File name 
text box. Make a note of where you are storing the file, which is displayed in the Save in 
drop down list. Put checkmarks in the Export user permission settings and Export 
confidential
 information (encryption will be used) check boxes if you want to save the 
private information included in the VPN Clients configuration (such as IPSec shared 
secrets). In this example we will call the file VPN Clients Backup. Click Export
