Can you migrate a configuration from one ESA to another?

This document describes how to load the configuration onto a replacement Email Security Appliance (ESA)
and how to migrate the configuration.

If you do not change the IP address or the name of your ESA and it will be used to replace your current unit,
complete these steps in order to restore your configuration.

Choose System Administration > Configuration File.

1. 

In the Current Configuration section, click the radio button next to Download file to local computer
to view or save.

2. 

Uncheck Mask passwords in the Configuration Files − files with masked passwords cannot be
loaded with Load Configuration.

3. 

Click Submit. This automatically downloads the appliance configuration in XML format to your local
computer. Based on your local computer and browser, be sure that you save the file to a known
location or your desktop.

4. 

Edit the XML file. In the Network Configuration section, remove the Ethernet and Port entries from
the configuration file. The Ethernet entry starts with <ethernet_settings> and ends with
</ethernet_settings>, and the Port entry starts with <ports> and ends with </ports>. 

5. 

Save the XML file.

6. 

Note: Make sure the AsyncOS version (for example, AsyncOS Version 7.6.3−019) is the same revision
loaded on each of the appliances.

Choose System Administration > Configuration File.
