Is there a way to copy the running-configs of some routers via SNMP? X-)
For Example, to use a cron-job to save all router-configs periodically on a linux-server.
Which settings do In need?

I could make out the solution already, although I really needed lots of time...
here's a link
(I think, with this link, sb. should be able to find the solution. I just had the problem, that I forgot to produce that file on the tftp-server (touch), before it could be written).

Greetings,

FloTse


:cool:
 
Kiwi software makes something called Cattools which does just this along with a few other items. It is pretty cheap.. current price is 69.00 US.. You can grab the running config and/or issue commands via a schedule. I used it for this and issuing a clear ipx route * command to several finicky routers I had in a HUGE EIGRP routed network.

Hi FloTse,
I do this myself the mib you require is below (an example from an AIX box...

&quot;snmpset -c <community name> <router name> .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.2.1.<tftpserver-IP-address> octetstring <filename>&quot;

I use this in a script which checks whether the config has changed since the last time, if it has it mails me. You may have the script if you wish. I'll write a FAQ with the script and post it here.

Cheers,
Phil. If everything is coming your way then you're in the wrong lane.
