replicating a 3600 bigip

Hello all,

 

I need to replace a BIG-IP 3600 ASM machine with a new 3600 machine. I've searched the KB for something alike - but couldn't find a procedure that replicates the machine entirely.

 

 

Could you please point me in the right direction?

    A couple things:

     

    Are you using the same software image and hardware?

     

    Does your new bigip have an ASM license?

     

     

    If yes, it might be easier to just bring over the configuration using a UCS archive.
