Saving and Restoring Configurations

You can save and restore node configuration files.

The Configuration Save and Restore (CSR) utility saves and restores configurations for the following node platforms:

•Cisco MGX PXM45-based products (Cisco MGX 8880, Cisco MGX 8950, and Cisco MGX 8850 (PXM45))

•Cisco MGX PXM1E-based products (Cisco MGX 8830 and Cisco MGX 8850 (PXM1E))

•Cisco MGX PXM1-based products (Cisco MGX 8230, Cisco MGX 8250, and Cisco MGX 8850 (PXM1))

•Cisco SES PNNI Controller

•Cisco IGX 8400 series

•Cisco BPX 8600 series

•Cisco MGX 8220 products

Note Release 15 of CWM ConfigSave and Restore does not support HP OpenView.

Each network node stores configuration information in battery RAM (BRAM) or on the controller’s hard drive, which depends on the type of node. The node configuration includes service module-related and topology information for trunks, circuit lines, jobs, connections, and so forth. Periodically, you should make a backup copy of the node configuration to facilitate recovery in the event of a node failure. Backup configurations are restored to the node from Cisco WAN Manager (CWM).

Note For Cisco IGX and Cisco BPX nodes, the save and restore capability is a licensed feature. You must use the cnfswfunc command on each node where you want to save and restore configurations.
