Brownfield import
Adopt the network you already run
You don't have to start from scratch. ispforge pulls running configuration off your routers, reconstructs sessions, peer-groups and policy intent, and brings them under management — so you can move a live production network onto the platform incrementally, with no rip-and-replace.
$ ispforge import r1.fmt2
✓ pulled config netconf
✓ sessions found 42
✓ peer-groups 6
✓ default-origin readvertise (2 upstreams)
✓ policy intent reconstructed
# review, then adopt — nothing is pushed back
Read first, adopt later
Reverse-compiled into ispforge objects
Import reads your live config and reconstructs it as first-class objects you can manage — created in a single atomic transaction, with nothing pushed back to the router until you explicitly deploy. Review what it found, adopt what you want, and keep going.
- Sessions & peer-groups — reconstructed with their policy assignments.
- Multihop, next-hop-self, BFD & graceful-restart — session shape carried across. MD5 keys can't be read off a router by anyone, so you paste those in.
- Default-origination — readvertise / pull-up / always, detected per upstream.
- Re-advertisement behavior — what you announce where, brought across.
- Policy intent — filters and communities reverse-compiled to profiles.
No rip-and-replace
Bring your production network as it is
Import one router, review the reconstruction, and adopt it under management on your own timeline.
