One thing to keep in mind, this is normally not so much a hardware revision change as a RouterOS revision change. They are really bad about changing words between versions.
Anyway, to answer you question, I usually copy and paste from the export to a terminal window in WinBox the sections that I need, one at a time. When there is an error, it is pretty easy to figure out what is different and change the export, recopy and paste. rabbtux rabbtux wrote: > any suggestions on necessary edits for export file use?
