Upgrade from 7800N

Post by mjbarnard »

I am planning to move from 7800N to 7800DXL (unless anyone suggests better to 8800?)

My question is simple. I have saved my configuration on the 7800N. Could I use this to populate the new router?

I am not worried about setting up the new router, it's simply that although I am a home office user I have my own mail server, run a server with Windows Server 2012 Essentials, a second server with Windows Storage 2012 and have numerous port forwarding rules. It would be much simpler to install a saved configuration file but not sure if that is possible when moving to the new router which is different model?

Thanks
Matt

Not possible as the new 7800 series runs off a new OS
