I use a shell script to go round the routers and use snmp sets to tftp the
router configs back to the management platform, I personely build around this
to keep the last 9 versions of a config for each router,  NOTE: switches dont
suuport this mib branch and instead use the copy MIB, which is also supported
in routers after IOS 11 I think.

/usr/OV/bin/snmpset -c $community $node .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.2.1.55.$IP octetstring
$filename 1>/dev/null

e.g. fully expanded it might look like

/usr/OV/bin/snmpset -c private testnode .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.2.1.55.10.0.0.1
octetstring /tmp/testnode.cfg 1>/dev/null

where
the community string is private for writes
the router in question has a node name of testnode
the IP address of the tftp server is 10.0.0.1
And the file name for the config to be written to is /tmp/testnode.cfg on the
tftp server

Hope that helps

Cheers...db

Hi,
I have netview 5.1.2 on solaris 2.6.
Does any one know if there is a tivoli or netview module that manages cisco
router config backups.
If not does anyone out there have a useful tool that can do this.
I am currently doing it using a telnet scriptor on an NT box.Unfortunately
the NT box is being removed and I need a solaris solution.
Any help or suggestions appreciated.

regards
