Root cause

The VPN instance corresponding to the xFTP server is not configured. The xFTP Server is the NCE. For this reason is not possible to synchronize the NE or backup the data configuration.

 

Solution

The VPN instance assigned to the xFTP Serverv(NCE) should be specified according to the following command:

 

sysman sftp vpn-instance 192.**.**.10 VPN_NAME

 

Summary

The sysman vpn-instance(xFTP) command is used to configure the VPN instance corresponding to an xFTP server. You can select a VPN instance as the one corresponding to the IP address of an xFTP server by running this command. After this command is executed successfully, when a device communicates with the user-specified xFTP server, it processes only requests on the corresponding VPN but not requests from other VPNs or public networks.
