Automating the process of backing up configuration (more efficient way) #332

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
I would like to see the capability of downloading files from a remote host. My 
purpose would be to write the current configuration to a file (more or less a 
backup, to be stored locally on the machine I am connecting with). So the 
feature should:
1. Write the configuration of the device to a text file.
2. Provide an easy means of downloading that newly created file.

So instead of performing the tasks of:
-command: terminal length 0
-Changing the settings of PuTTY to "Log all session output"
-Changing the location and name of file every time
-command: show run
-Find the directory where the specified log was created

(Or just click and select all of the configuration text and copy into a new 
local text file for this would be too time consuming for the repetitiousness of 
this specific task.)

I want to simply do this:
-command: terminal length 0
-SuperPuTTY Feature to enable logging, automate show run, write config text 
into file on device, download file locally to given directory.

For more specifics, just email me!

Thanks,

Nic

Essentially do this ---->

Much more efficiently with the least amount of commands and clicks as possible!
