cisco web appliance Policy Import/export to onther Appliance

[ezzaariyouness]

Hello,

I have 2 Cisco web appliance in different location, I went to replicate Policies from the first appliance to second appliance without IP address changes. And hostname .....

N.B : it's take time for me If I create policies from scratch on the second appliance.

Please let me know if there is any method to do that.

Thank You in advance for your help.

yes you can do config backup and restore as long as AsyncOS running same version of code.

If I do restore on the second appliance, It will replicate the IP addressee also, which I don't went.

I only went to replicate Policies .

2 Option you when to backup config,

1. it give you option with network settings.

Load Network Settings  (check box) if that is not ticked it only restore the config you looking.

Basic network settings (interface configuration, routing tables, and DNS settings) will be retained unless the option to load network settings is selected.

2. you can edit the XML file and update with any IP information need to change and use that config XML to restore.

As Balaji Mentioned, 

By default the "Load Network Settings" is un-checked, you can import the config to 2nd WSA, 

Kindly be advised, to double check the certificates ( decryption / ISE / ... ) to make sure they are correct.
