COPYING OF OBJECTS AND OTHER CONFIGS FROM BIG-IP 5050 TO WORKING BIG-IP VPR-B2250

Hi Team,

From BIG-IP 5050 TO WORKING (BIG-IP VPR-B2250) to BIG-IP 5050 TO WORKING (BIG-IP VPR-B2250), we intend to copy the objects and other configurations. If someone knows how to do it using script, please let me know. I want to copy the items below.

virtual, nodes, pools, monitor instances

interfaces, nats, self ips,snats,trunks, tunnels, vlans.

Thank you

        angerica If you are loading two devices into one VPR you could try creating an SCF of each device and then using the "load sys config from-terminal merge" as Mohamed_Salah_ has mentioned below. The following article is how you would go about creating the SCF file. This will take some manual editing of the configuration that you load for referenced interfaces but it would speed things up a bit.

  • Hello,

    Since you don't need all config, and just pool and virtual servers and some LTM objects, you can open the bigip.conf file (from the source device that you need to copy config from), and start copying the configuration as text, and then migrate these objects using the below command:

    Access new device

    #load sys config from-terminal merge verify

    and verify for any erros and try to fix them, Then run the same command without verify.

    #load sys config from-terminal merge

    Thanks,
