Replicating a Branch Gateway using a USB mass-storage device
About this task
The following procedure is useful for replicating a Branch Gateway that has become faulty.
Since the backup command backs up all the gateway configuration files, but does not back
up any firmware files, the main task is to add the various firmware files before running
restore.
Important:
When adding files to a backup directory on a USB mass-storage device, follow the file and
directory naming convention, detailed in
Sample backup directory after backup on
page 92, to enable a successful restore.
Procedure
1. Make sure you have a backup of the faulty Branch Gateway on a USB mass-storage
device.
Refer to Backing up administration and configuration files using a USB mass-
storage device on page 91.
2. Transfer the media modules, including the S8300 if installed, from the faulty Branch
Gateway into the corresponding slots of the new Branch Gateway.
3. Connect the new Branch Gateway to a power source.
4. In the new Branch Gateway, enter show image version to find out which of the
two image banks holds the older Branch Gateway firmware version, and what
