Dear Adtran Support Community
I have a similar challenge as the one that has been discussed before (migrating a configuration from a bsc400 to bsc600). In my case its a very big configuration of a bsc2100 which I need to migrate to a new bsc2200. I hesitate to simply use the backup/restore function accross different models without checking-back first.
-1. Can you advice to take that path or is ther an other possibility?
-2. Which precautions have to be taken when using the backup/restore path? (software versions..)
Ill be glad for any advice.
Thank you
Andi Trautmann
You can restore a configuration from any BSC model to any BSC model as long as the BSC that you are restoring to is running the same or newer software release. You cannot restore a configuration from a newer software release to an older software release. If you are running version 5.2 or prior, you must upgrade to 5.3.2.6 first to adjust the configuration file before restoring it to a BSC running 6.x.
