XMC ZTP+ configuration (migration of config from old to new switches)

[Arjumand_Qazi]

Need to migrate running config from around 40 existing X460's switches to new X460 switches.

I was told ZTP+ can help in this regard, i was trying to search how to download the current running config from these switches but i couldn't find the answer.

went through some gtech documentation about ztp+, dhcp and dns setting requirements, okay i got that part and the new switches will get discovered but once discovered how can we upload the config from old switches to these new ones before we decommission the old ones ?

is ZTP used only for discovering new switches and apply basic config or we can apply full fledged configuration from old switches to the new ones?

Thanks for such a detailed answer, process you showed would be my preferred method to send config from old x460 to new ones, i have no idea right now about current configs but day after tomorrow i will be unpacking the new switches and also will get to see what is running in the current switches and whether they are G2 or old ones.

my assumption will be, old and new switches might be of same configuration (port wise) because its not an expansion rather a replacement.

client want to use XMC for this migration i don't know how much viable XMC might be in this situation. will ZTP+ help in this scenario ? if yes how ?
