Huawei OLT Configuration Backup and Restore
Today I will discuss how to take configuration backup from Huawei OLT and Restore it. We can perform backup and restore tasks using either the GUI or the command line. CLI allows us to do it in a variety of ways, including FTP, TFTP, SFTP, and XMODEM mode. We are going to complete the backup and restore process using the TFTP CLI.
First, we must log into the OLT using Putty, Tera Term, SecureCRT, or other terminal software.
To successfully backup and restore a Huawei OLT's configuration, we need two types of files.The configuration file extension will be .cfg, while the data file extension will be .dat.
Now, I will take a configuration backup from OLT to the TFTP server.
HUAWEI-OLT(config)#backup configuration tftp 192.168.1.10 HUAWEI-OLT-20052022.cfg
HUAWEI-OLT(config)#backup data tftp 192.168.1.10 HUAWEI-OLT-20052022.cfg
It's time to restore the configuration by loading the configuration and database files into the OLT.
HUAWEI-OLT(config)#load configuration tftp 192.168.1.10 HUAWEI-OLT-20052022.cfg all
HUAWEI-OLT(config)#load data tftp 192.168.1.10 HUAWEI-OLT-20052022.dat
HUAWEI-OLT(config)#active configuration system
System will reboot after this command, continue? (y/n)[n]:y
After rebooting the system, we will see that the configuration was successfully restored.
