Backing up and restoring the G250/G350 using a USB mass
storage device
The G250/G350 USB port supports a USB flash drive and a USB externally powered hub. The
port also supports USB 2.0 high speed (480 Mbits/sec) for faster file transfer between the media
gateway and USB mass storage devices.
Note:
An external USB hub is supported on G250 gateways with hardware suffix D or
Note:
above, and on G350 gateways with hardware suffix.vintage C.1 or above.
To check the hardware suffix and vintage, enter show system and check the HW
suffix and HW vintage values.
CLI commands for backing up and restoring files to or from a USB mass storage device enable
you to use the USB port for efficient restoration or replication of a G250/G350 media gateway
and for replacing and upgrading media modules. Using the USB port you can back up or restore
multiple files with one CLI command, which is simpler than the alternative TFTP/FTP/SCP
method, in which files are copied and restored individually.
A single CLI command backs up all the administration and configuration files of a gateway onto
a USB mass storage device. Another single command restores all of the backed up files. If you
need to completely replicate a media gateway, you can also download the G250 or G350
firmware, media modules' firmware, IP phone firmware, and Device Manager firmware (G350
only and optional) to the USB mass storage device, and use the restore usb command to
restore these files as well as the administration and configuration files.
