There are several methods to do it, I found it simple to write a small shell script. Feel free to use it and send feedback if my scripting capabilities seem to poor to you :) The script, rtr-getcfg is here: -------8<------------------ #!/bin/sh # Version 0.07 # Made by Marcello Gorlani, use and distribute freely at your own risk if [ "$1" = "" ]; then echo "Missing parameter: >router IP>" exit fi COMMUNITY=MyRWCommunity DSTTFTP=MyTFTPServerIP TSTAMP=$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S) BASEOID=.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.2.1.55 TMOUT=60 FNAME=$1-$TSTAMP.txt SOID=$BASEOID.$DSTTFTP COMND="snmpset -t$TMOUT -c$COMMUNITY $1 $SOID s $FNAME" echo $COMND $COMND Replace MyRWCommunity with your RW community and MyTFTPServerIP with the IP address of your TFTP server. I remark it MUST be a dotted decimal IP address like 1.2.3.4 and not a DNS name. By running: rtr-getcfg 192.168.0.1 you'll end having its cfg in a file named after the IP of your router, tailed with a timestamp so you can mantain history. If you have several routers just put their address one per line in a file and with a little more scripting launch several times rtr-getcfg: This is ready to be put in a small script and scheduled with cron: -------8<------------------ #!/bin/sh cat switches.txt | while read sw; do rtr-getcfg $sw; done -------8<------------------ Replace switches.txt with the path to your switch list. That's all. This is working on FreeBSD with Net-SNMP 5.x, but it probably works on most *nix and Linux boxes. |
