Identifies the restore point to or
from which to perform the
backup operation.
Examples
The following commands save the current configuration as a configuration at Restore Point 1, and
export the file to the external server location:
root> platform configuration configuration-file add restore-point-1
root> platform configuration configuration-file export restore-point-1
Importing and Restoring a Configuration File (CLI)
You can import a configuration file from an external PC or laptop to one of the restore points. Once
you have imported the file, you can restore the configuration. Restoring a saved configuration
does not change the unit’s FIPS mode.
In order to import a configuration file, you must configure the FTP channel parameters
and restore points, as described in Setting the Configuration Management Parameters
and Backing up and Exporting a Configuration File.
To import a configuration file, enter the following command in root view:
root> platform configuration configuration-file import <restore-point>
To restore a configuration from a restore point to become the active configuration file, enter the
following command in root view:
root> platform configuration configuration-file restore <restore-point>
