Cisco Router Died - Replacing With Exact Same Model - Considerations?

Hello everyone,

To be brief, I have a Cisco 881 router at a remote site that decided to finally give out. I have a backup of the running config dated a few days back and an identical Cisco 881 that I can deploy to this site. Would you say I am able to basically just copy the running config backup into the device and I should be good to ship this device out and have the on-site users plug it in?

Any additional considerations that wouldn't have been caught in a backup of the running config? I was tipped off that maybe it wouldn't be as easy as I am assuming and would need to look into SSH keys etc.
