The English narration in this video. Select a time to watch that moment.
In My Labs, open Import and choose Device Configs to build a lab from saved configurations.
Use clean configuration files with passwords, keys and other sensitive values removed.
Select the configuration files for both routers, then choose Analyze.
Review the detected hostnames, vendors, operating systems and models before continuing.
The preview suggests a cable between interfaces on the same network.
Check both interface names and addresses, and remove any suggested cable that is incorrect.
Expand Unmatched Interfaces to see addressed ports that have no suggested connection.
Give the lab a clear name, then choose Create Lab.
Open the new lab and check that both routers and their cable are present.
In Configs, select Startup and inspect the configuration imported for each router.
Open the first router console and check its interface address and status.
Ping the second router, repeating the test after initial address resolution if needed.
Five successful replies confirm that this imported link is working.
Check the second router too, so you verify both ends of the link.
Save the device configurations before leaving the lab.
Reopen the lab from My Labs and check that its configuration is still available.
Keep the original files and verify the imported settings before using a larger network.
