List of Supported Gateways

• Source Gateways - XG45, XI52, XB52, IDG, IDG X2
• Target Gateways - IDG, IDG X2
• Physical & Virtual (OVA) Form Factor only

Prerequisites & Assumptions

• The source and the target gateways should be up and running to perform backup and restore (not necessarily at the same time).
• The source gateway must be registered to DPOD before process begins.
• Target gateway may or may not be registered to DPOD before the process begins.
• Target gateway must have XML Management Interface enabled. The XML Management Interface must be accessible via the MGMT network interface.
• The system must be able to communicate with the XML Management Interface of both gateways using SOMA requests with supplied user and password.
• Target gateway will have a temporary management IP address (before the restore) to allow running the Secure-Restore.
• Target gateway will have a different system identifier (device name) than the source gateway.
• Private and public keys must be available before secure backup or restore start.
• Public key must be uploaded to the source gateway while Crypto IC object must be uploaded to the target gateway before the restore begins.

Limitations

• The migration process cannot be executed in DPOD's Developer or Docker Edition.
• The migration process will not handle the following:
  • B2B persistence store data
  • HSM data
  • RAID data
  • Gateways configured with Application Optimization
  • Gateways configured with Link Aggregation/Standby-Control
  • Custom system health metrics, device groups and DNS translations configured for the source gateway in the system
