How do I unzip Cisco secure package files (CSP)?

[Victor Konovalov]

How do I unzip Cisco secure package files (CSP)? I guess PGP is used. But there is no fxos chassis in my development environment. It gives me a headache.

The CSP files are only designed to be used in a Firepower chassis. What are you trying to achieve by extracting them?

[Victor Konovalov]

I will not modify this. I refer to the document information to indicate that the modification will not be accepted by fxos.

I just want to extract the configuration file.

The csp doesn't contain the configuration of an FTD device - only the operating system.

To get a full configuration backup of an FTD device you need to initiate a backup from FMC. If you only need the running config (which is only part of the full configuration) then you can just use "show running-config" from the cli
