password saved in firewall

shirishkulkarni — Thu, 21 Mar 2024 07:06:02 GMT

Hi Team,

We are migrating firewalls from one environment to another; in the other environment, we will create a new firewall, and that firewall will be managed by panaroma. What we are going to do is copy the named configuration export from old and import it on new firewall. My question is, when I export and import the configuration, will the password (lie IKE gateway password or any other password) also be saved and imported to the new device?

@shirishkulkarni,

Do you set the same master key across your devices, or leave them set to the default value? If that's the same across devices then yes you can just import secrets and they'll work, but if you don't know the answer to that question or the answer is no, then it isn't going to work because the pre-shared-key and phash values won't actually match what you're expecting.

so, while migration how we make sure that passwords are also saved because current firewalls using since long back and i don't think anyone know about all passwords, is there any way while we save the config the password also save properly.
