Migrating Between ISA 2004 and ISA 2006 Using the Export Wizard The preferable way to
upgrade an ISA 2004 server is to export out the rule configuration from the ISA 2004
server and then import them into the new ISA 2006 server. This allows for a fresh configuration
to be maintained and also has the advantage of easy failback to the old server in
the event of issues.
Existing rules and settings from an ISA 2004 server XML export are all that are needed to
migrate rules and settings from 2004 to 2006. In addition, any SSL certificates that are
installed on the old 2004 server must be transferred and installed on the 2006 server as well.
