Backup and Restore via SCP
To back up ALL settings of a PX, including device-specific settings, you
should perform the backup operation instead of the bulk configuration.
You can restore all settings to previous ones after a backup file is
available.
To back up the settings using the SCP command:
1. Type the following SCP command and press Enter.
scp <user name>@<device ip>:/backup_settings.xml

<user name>
is the "admin" or any user profile with the
administrator privileges.

<device ip>
is the IP address of the PX that you want to update.
2. Type the password when the system prompts you to type it.
3. The system saves the settings from the PX to a file named
"backup_settings.xml."
To restore the settings using the SCP command:
1. Type the following SCP command and press Enter.
scp backup_settings.xml <user name>@<device
ip>:/settings_restore
