Restore Config, from Cisco Prime to WLC 2504

[flielguera]

Good afternoon friends:
I have the following:
A WLC 2504, and a Cisco Prime version 3.1
Through the Cisco Prime I get backup of the different devices, including the WLC 2504. When my WLC 2504 died, I made my RMA; I already have the new WLC, but my question is how do I pass the backup of the Cisco Prime configuration to the new WLC? In Cisco Prime, I go to Inventory - Device Management --- Configuration Archive and I must do a DEPLOY, ?? it is right .?? or is there another way to do a configuration restore?
I await your help.
Regards.
Fernando.

Quick question, is this WLC 2504 in HA Pair ?

If so you can configure other device configuration and change the IP addresses.

Hello, this is not a WLC 2504 HA Pair.

Prime has the backup, so export that and upload it using TFTP or FTP, that is the easiest way I think. You still have to configure the initial stuff to get the device online. My suggestion is try to push “deploy” to the device and compare the config after that completes with an older config to see if everything got pushed. If not, uploading the config works 100%.

I would manually go CLI and find out the repository is (sorted by IP address) and download the file using the WLC.
