    Hi,

    You can use an scf backup and load it via the cli.

    save /sys config file my-scf no-passphrase

    Look for it in /var/local/scf

    load /sys config merge file <filename> verify

    load sys config from-terminal merge
    or
    load /sys config merge file <filename> 
    save sys config
