To my understanding this is doing scheduled backup for FMC with "Back Up Configuration" option ticked.&nbsp;&nbsp;<SPAN>But question is what this file consist of&nbsp; ? I mean which file they are backing up ? Which Config Files are being backup up by this Option ?</SPAN></P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Also my FMC is redundant , so is it from Active FMC to Standby FMC backup files are replicated ? or this is local to Active FMC only ?&nbsp;&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P><SPAN>&nbsp;</SPAN></P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P> Wed, 03 Jul 2019 19:22:28 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/backup-of-firepower-management-backup-amp-amp-managed-device/m-p/3884269#M1010563 subrun.jamil 2019-07-03T19:22:28Z https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/backup-of-firepower-management-backup-amp-amp-managed-device/m-p/3884464#M1010566 <P>An FMC backup back ups everything on the FMC - i.e. sufficient to restore from a factory fresh appliance.</P> <P>Re backups in an HA environment, I'm not sure if local backup files are replicated between the HA members. I suspect not. It is best to backup to a remote file location in any case.</P> <P>Since 6.3 we can optionally backup managed FTD devices as well. Prior to then, only classic Firepower devices (7000 and 8000 series) could be backed up to the FMC.</P> <P>More details can be found here:</P> <P><A href="https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/firepower/640/configuration/guide/fpmc-config-guide-v64/backup_and_restore.html" target="_blank">https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/firepower/640/configuration/guide/fpmc-config-guide-v64/backup_and_restore.html</A></P> Thu, 04 Jul 2019 04:07:52 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/backup-of-firepower-management-backup-amp-amp-managed-device/m-p/3884464#M1010566 Marvin Rhoads 2019-07-04T04:07:52Z https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/backup-of-firepower-management-backup-amp-amp-managed-device/m-p/4086521#M1070250 <P>Hi Marvin,</P><P>i want to ask, what excatly backup from the ftd?&nbsp;</P><P>till 6.2 i was not possible to backup the nat , vpn, routing</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>is this possilble from 6.3?</P> Fri, 15 May 2020 12:01:31 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/backup-of-firepower-management-backup-amp-amp-managed-device/m-p/4086521#M1070250 Georg Karner 2020-05-15T12:01:31Z https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/backup-of-firepower-management-backup-amp-amp-managed-device/m-p/4086540#M1070253 <P>Everything but the bits you setup during the initial bootstrap (management address, gateway, hostname, FMC registration etc.) is included in the backup. So if you ever have to RMA an appliance, just do the bare minimum setup on the new device and restore from the FMC backup once it's registered.</P> Fri, 15 May 2020 12:15:45 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/backup-of-firepower-management-backup-amp-amp-managed-device/m-p/4086540#M1070253 Marvin Rhoads 2020-05-15T12:15:45Z
