It should all link up.  The only rules that may not match are custom
rules where you specified stuff about your previous configuration
(unlikely) or "this channel" rules where the callsign of the channel is
different from its previous value (but you can always change the
callsign to the same value it had previously).  Chances are most of your
rules are "any channel" rules (or, they should be ;), so it should just
work.
