Using the Other Input References
NOTE: The SyncServer gets a new EngineID on every upgrade (even if "upgrading" to the
same system software version you are already running). You MUST re-query the Syn-
cServer via SNMP get and reconfigure your v3 trap receivers to use this new EngineID.
Transferring Configurations
The user can transfer a configuration across multiple SyncServers to save time and effort,
provided they are running the same
Software Version (displayed on the STATUS - General
page.
If you have physical access to the SyncServer, the easiest method for transferring the con-
figuration is to use a USB flash drive and the front panel keypad.
1. Create a backup file on a configured SyncServer, as described in Creating a Backup
File (on page 118).
2. Restore that backup file to another SyncServer as described in Restoring from a
Backup File (on page 119).
3. IMPORTANT: When the SyncServer reboots, immediately change the IP address of LAN1
using the front panel MENU button as described in Configuring LAN1 (on page 111).
This step resets all of the network port addresses and prevents network address col-
lisions with the previous SyncServer.
4. Log in and use the NETWORK - Ethernet page to configure the network ports.
5. On the SYSTEM - General page, update the Hostname .
