Nightly BU of Cisco Devices

[akime9]

Hi, I am looking for a program that will SSH to various Cisco equipment and pull a show run. I’ve used Cacti in the past and not only would it run but would also show changes between configs. Cacti looks very different and there isn’t much documentation. Anyone have any advice on how to accomplish this. NOTE: don’t want to use SNMP for this. TY

Hi Akime,

You can use Ansible with "ios_command" module to accomplish that.  There are many example Ansible playbooks out there (google it).  Hope that help.

Regards,

David
