How to migrate Truenas Scales with Bridged networking from AMD based hardware to intel based hardware

Hi all,
I have a running truenas home server on AMD 5750GE based Lenovo tiny. I have 3 pools. I have bridged the network few years back to free up ports 80 and 443. Now I want to migrate the setup to HP Zbook G6 based on intel processor.
I have attempted doing this by downloading the configuration from AMD machine, doing a fresh install on intel machine and then applying the configuration.
I have changed my static lease configuration in the router to map the Mac address of intel machine to my truenas IP address which is picked up by the intel machine after booting in during and after the fresh install.
However, Once I upload the configuration file from AMD machine the intel machine does not show up on my network anymore.

Please guide what am I missing here.

I suspect that configuration includes the network configuration against the Linux name for the AMD network card.

So you probably need to use the TrueNAS hardware console to set up the network again.
