Ironport C170 Config file restore

[pravin.bhavsar1]

Hi Team,

We have 2 clustered Ironport server with AsyncOS 7.5.2  with site 1 and now we are building new DR site for Exchange 2010 and buiding Ironport on DR site.

We have one ironport AsyncOS 7.6.2 for Cisco IronPort C170 build 201 at DR site.

We have to restore configuration file from Site 1 to DR site.

Can you please provide me the steps to restore the file from site 1 to DR site

I have removed the one node from ironport cluster from site 1 and taken the backup of the configuration file.

Regards,

Pravin

Pravin -

You will need to upgrade all appliances to the same revision in order to have the configuration used from site 1 to the DR.  Also, 7.5.2 and 7.6.2 are EOL, and you would be strongly suggested to upgrade to the minimum of 7.6.3-019 for all appliances.

After that - it would just be a matter of looking at this two ways - while upgrading the appliances at site 1, just save the configuration copy once upgraded as needed to 7.6.3-019.  Make a copy and modify the Network Configuration section: Hostname, Interface <IP>, Routing Table... and then load that copy on the DR site.

Or - the other way to look at it would be to just join the DR site to the cluster.  That way all configuration is shared among the three appliances.

I hope this helps!

Hi Robert,

We have upgraded DR ironport to 8.0.1-023 but while trying the same with site 1 it is showing only 7.6.2.

are we able to upgrade those device to 8.0.1-23?
