      Greetings,

      I have a general question regarding pfSense "Backup Configuration" feature. I have to migrate (or copy to be precise) pfSense from KVM cluster to bare metal server cluster. While configuring servers I found few differences in interface naming and minor details which prevent from simple config copy pasting.

      I've noticed that /var/etc/frr/ config files were not recommended to change manually, it somehow gets rewritten by GUI. And FRR config doesn't go with general pfSense backup config.xml file. My question is how to copy FRR config from one pfSense to another if not repeating in GUI it again. Thanks.

        @shshs all packages store their config in config.xml
        unless you tampered with it yourself
