Exporting settings from SG230 to virtual appliance

Hello,

I would like to export all settings from an SG230 and import them into a virtual SG appliance. I would like to backup settings without license key, and import the backup in the virtual environment.

When I will import settings in the virtual appliance, how can I modify networks adapters using command line?

Thanks

Hello eclipse79,

Thank you for reaching out to the community, you can export the printable configuration if that helps - https://community.sophos.com/utm-firewall/f/general-discussion/22706/howto-export-complete-printable-configuration

Hello F,

You can import the SG config to a VM, but with license. You have to input the virtual-license or home license afterwards.

Reconfiguring the interfaces at VM is not simple. I would create a management-interface before exporting the config.

Ciao F,

If you just restore a regular, full backup, you will get a license warning requiring you to upload a valid license - molto piu semplice !

  Hi Bob!
  
  The problem is that in my SG230 I have 6 interfaces, but in the virtual appliance I have 5 interfaces... so what could happen when restoring?

    If you didn't use the upper interfaces ... restore works with SG firewall.
    
    Otherwise, you have to reassign a new Port/VLAN to the IP-Interface afterwards
