Policy to profile mode

[ceffer]

I have been running policy mode for about 2 years on a 201 HA. I am leaning to switching over to profile mode. Has any one made this switch? I an curious on how mu mch of the confugration is going to have to be re done. Also open to people experience/thoughts on profile and policy mode.

Hi,

The configuration will be lost when you change the mode from policy to profile.

So you have to configure the policy from scratch.

Kindly refer the above URL and decide to move from policy to profile mode.
