I would use upgrade-export on the SmartCenter server to create backups. This should get you everything you could ever hope to restore into a single file. It definitely meets the last two criteria, and it should be easy enough to encrypt, since the actual export is a tar/gzip archive. To restore, you use the appropriately-named upgrade-import tool. PaulM -----Original Message----- Subject: [fw-wiz] Backup Checkpoint Firewall I am working on creating a secure means to backup a CheckPoint FW-1 with AI firewall. I have procedures for encrypting the information, but what is the best way to get all of the configuration? Here is what I would like to have: Text output (preferred, I can encrypt to ASCII if needed) All configuration settings Easy way to import into a new installation If this is possible, what would be the command to execute to get the backup and the command to import it back in? If it isn't possible, what is the best way? _______________________________________________ firewall-wizards mailing list firewall-wizards () honor icsalabs com http://honor.icsalabs.com/mailman/listinfo/firewall-wizards
