Solved: Backup devices from Device Management

ohareka70 · ‎05-20-2019

Hello,

I have an FMC750 running version 6.4.0. I also have a new FMC2500 running version 6.4.0

Because they are different chassis i cant take a backup from the 750 and restore onto the 2500. So i have taken a copy of the export / import and got some of the policys across. But i need to get 8 devices and the site to site VPN's. Any idea how i can copy them across? i dont see any function to do this.

i was able to export/import the objects at least. I dont need any logs etc

Unfortunately Cisco has not generally implemented tooling to support such a use case.

You will have to deregister the devices from the current FMC and then register them to the new one and associate/deploy the imported policies.

The VPNs will have to be recreated. You can see all of the relevant configuration bits from the "show running-config" on the existing devices and then manually import them into the new FMC and deploy.
