execute restore config
Use this command to restore the configuration from a configuration backup file on an TFTP server, or to install primary or backup firmware.
| Back up the configuration before restoring the configuration. This command restores configuration changes only, and does not affect settings that remain at their default values. Default values may vary by firmware version. |
Syntax
execute restore config tftp <filename> <ip> [<password>}
<filename> | Name of the configuration file. |
<ip> | IP address of the TFTP server. |
password | Password that was used to encrypt the backup file, if any. If you do not provide a password, the backup file must have been stored as clear text. |
Example
This example downloads a configuration file named backup.conf from the TFTP server, 192.168.1.23, to the FortiADC appliance. The backup file was encrypted with the password P@ssword1.
FortiADC-VM # execute restore config tftp backup.conf 192.168.1.23 P@ssword1
This operation will overwrite the current settings!
Do you want to continue? (y/n)
The FortiADC appliance then applies the configuration backup and reboots.
