Priviledge mode on router

[Andy White]

Hello,

What priviledge mode can I give our backup server?  I what to give it a priviledge mode where it can only back it up an do nothing else, currently I have it at level 15.

Also is there a read only priviledge?

Depending on what you have the server doing, you can create additional privilege levels and assign specific commands the privilege is able to run.

You can also use SNMP to backup configuration files.

I would suggest you to use an automatic backup script using KRON if supported by your appliance.
