Pulling controller config from NCS

thefranmanatt — Sun, 04 Jul 2021 06:33:08 GMT

So it looks like by default NCS doesn't back up the Controller configs to the tftp folder. Is there anyway to get the config from the NCS? Clearly it has to know the controller's config for audits.

Replacing a dead controller with a new blank controller is turing in to a nightmare. Putting a base config so the NCS can talk to the new WLC and then doing an audit with update controller with NCS settings is coming back with a ton of errors.

You can schedule a task to backup the WLC configuration. Pushing out templates is not a good idea for a restore at all. Having the latest good config is the way to go.
