ASA Restore config from other ASA

[Gerson Acevedo]

I have the configuration file of the ASA  5505 I have another exactly model that asa is new but  this my first time working with an ASA.

I going to configure it an  ip address  in the  0/0 interface and then use TFTP to upload the config to the   start-up config and the save it and reload the ASA

is that enough? or the ASA has  extra steps??

Hello Gerson,

you can do that , make sure that the interface numbering are same.. and also once it rebooted you may need to no shut all the interfaces manually..

anothe way to do this is to copy paste the configuration from the global configuration mode

Hope it helps
