Cisco Security Manager: How to migrate/copy CSM configuration to a new server

lot · ‎01-20-2010

Hi,

Is it possible to copy a CSM server's configuration to another CSM server installation?

I only want to copy the security policies (policy objects, access rules +) configured on the old server, not the device registration and and logs.

How can this be done?

I appreciate your help!

Thanks,

Laavi

Hi Ganesh,

thanks for your response.

I'm not sure if a full backup of the old CSM server is exactly what I want. The goal is to split one CSM into two CSM servers. The new network will be a copy of the old one, but with new devices. We want the two networks to have identically configuration when it comes to access rules, policy objects etc.

I would like to copy the CSM configuration only. I want a clean CSM installation and register new devices.

Can you fill me in here, please?

Thanks again,

Laavi
