R77 config backup

mail2fero — Thu, 09 Jul 2020 09:32:15 GMT

Hi All,

i am fresh to checkpoint. i am currently evaluating vnf appliance R77, a virtual gateway.

i am stuck in doing backup via SCP/FTP using CLI. there seem to be no option to do that.

i am trying to search online but the commands mentioned in the checkpoint docs dont seem to be applicable for the device i am having.

my goal is to do backup (full snapshot) and restore via cli.

any help or pointers please

R77 is out of support for a long time now. There is no point to even put en effort.

We have Check Point for Beginners section in this community, with lots of lectures, videos and even lab guidance. Go there and let me know if you need any further assistance afterwards.

To clarify is the version R77.20.87 or something different?

If you're talking about CloudGuard VNF, that's actually based on Embedded Gaia or our SMB appliances.
Which means you can follow the same procedure to perform backups.

I'm also having backup issues and getting this error.

fw> add backup scp ip x.x.x.x path c:\ username password
CLINFR0329 Invalid command:'add backup scp ip x.x.x.x path c:\ username password.
fw>

Can someone tell me why? Thanks.

Did you refer to the documentation (example from R81.20):

@kehagen
The path should start/end with "/" (Linux format)
