Seems I am a glutton for punishment…

Upload a config file that has an error (adding address objects vs. the Web UI) the device will factory reset and you have to start the setup all over, the firmware re-downloads (already on the latest) and start over. No option to revert like previous.

Additionally there is no log to help debug.

Using the "Test" in the config manager will always pass.

    Appears that the issue now is the https cert is not the factory and isnt part of the config.

    Will require a factory reset to gain access again

    The issue is that the certificate referenced was not in the router and is not part of the config. there is a new backup option that apparently is more of a device image that may include the certificate. Granted, it doesn't appear to be a good way to clone devices.

    I also found that you need to update the backup firmware from CLI (cmd cloud-helper get firmware X) to be able to apply new configuration file. Without it keep trying to apply the config to a old version of uOS for the initial setup process…

    Hi @trench3487

    According to your description, this is more likely configuration applying encountered some issue. Could you send the configuration file to me so I can help to address it?

    I did a local test and I didn't fail back to old version, still the same version when I apply config file.
