I'm new to OPNSense, and I would like to know, if in a disaster, can I restore a backup saved on a USB drive, via the CLI menu? I see that in option 13 it only shows the files that are saved locally, how could I move the backup that is on the usb drive to the folder that it reads?
Thanks
I always do a fresh install,
then on the webUI I upload my existing config file (that is automatically backuped daily) and reboot. Done!
Works all the time...
;)
You can install with config.xml import during the install process, see Documentation. Same hardware (interface names...) is helpful though... ;-)
If you have a running installation, why mess around with CLI? Go GUI and have the config on your machine with the browser. On CLI you would have to mount the stick on BSD, i guess.
