Warning

The Export command does not export system user passwords, installed certificates, SSH keys, Dude, or a User-manager database.

Installed certificates, SSH keys, Dude, and User-manager databases must be manually exported and imported into a new device.

System user passwords can not be exported.

During config import, we suggest using the same RouterOS version used during config export to prevent cases when some of the commands do not exist in one or another RouterOS version.

    #   ADDRESS            NETWORK         BROADCAST       INTERFACE
