Backing Up the POAP Personality

Backing Up the POAP Personality
You can create a backup of the POAP personality either locally on the switch or remotely on the server. The
personality backup taken from the switch should be restored only on a switch of the same model.
Note If you are using the Cisco scheduler feature for backups, you can configure it to also back up the POAP
personality, as shown in the following example. For more information on the scheduler, see the Cisco
Nexus 9000 Series NX-OS System Management Configuration Guide.
