CLI

export

export [option] [menu]
The "export" command exports all objects of the specified menu/submenu
and all underlying submenus. This allows you to export a configuration or a part of
the configuration for backup purposes or in order to import it on another system
(using the "import" command).

"export" can generate the configuration data in many different output formats:

If no file is specified, "export" will write the data structure to standard out.
