Backup and restore to a new device (1530\1570)

[MrDazana]

Can I take a backup from a spark 1530, and restore it to a spark1570 ? Both using same firmware R81.10 (996000575)

Yes within reason, please refer:

I saw that, but When i do it to a 1530 to a 1570 it does not work properly . When I restored the file to a 1570 which came from my 1530, all the ports were messed up. After the restore, I couldn't determine which port was DMZ and it showed 7 ports. Also, port 3 on my 1530 had vlans but on the 1570 port 3  was shown disconnected and port 2 connected ( even though it was connected on port 3) 

I ended up creating a new config on the 1570 after a factory reset

@Amir_Ayalon Should this work or only between 1530-1550 and 1570-1590 respectively?

Notwithstanding wifi vs wireless models obviously

Yes, works only between 1530-1550 and 1570-1590 respectively. sk111334 is for old models. Newer as the 15x0 can import older configuration (but that may be successfull or not).
