Importing Devices
NSM can import device configurations from devices running ScreenOS 5.x or later, IDP
4.0 or later, Junos 9.0 or later, SA 6.2 or later, or IC 2.2 or later.
When importing from a device, the management system connects to the device and
imports Data Model (DM) information that contains details of the device configuration.
The connection is secured using Secure Server Protocol (SSP), a proprietary encryption
method; an always-on connection exists between the management system and device.
NOTE: Importing the running configuration from a device completely
overwrites all configuration information stored within NSM for that device.
To help avoid accidental configuration overwriting, when you attempt to
import a configuration from a currently managed security device, NSM
prompts you for confirmation to import.
