IPS current configuration Backup

[Faisal Khan]

Hi,

Can anybody help me about IPS 4260 backup....we want to take back using TFTP...is it posible to take backup of runing configuration or backup cofiguration using TFTP???

Or  if it is not posible is...any other posible solution to take backup except ftp and url solutions?

On Checking I would say no.

This can most likley be done using a CRON job setup under the service accounts but you would have to locate all the conf files under unix and back them up.

I would suggest as TFTP is a poor protocol with no security to use SCP to another box running ssh instead.

thanks for ur reply....

please provide TFTP or windows based solution...

its only one time backup for IPS configuration.

I don't believe you can copy directly to a TFTP server. You'll have to use one of the supported protocols or just show the configuration from the CLI and then copy and paste to a text file.
