    In Cisco, I can automatically backup config using scp or tftp to other location every time I issue “wr me”
    How to achieve the same in other brand?
     
    CISCO:
    archive
    path scp://root:eve@10.0.10.70/$h
    write-memory
     
    HP:

    Hi,

     

    Not sure if this is possible. Until now I didn't saw this. there are multiple ways in manually making backup's and upload them via SFTP / FTP in single commands. There is also option to restore these backups without reboot. In order to achieve similar process like your I see a lot of organizations enable the following snmp trap:

    snmp-server enable traps startup-config-change

     

    when the management system than receives this trap it automatically makes backup. Maybe this will also work for you.

     

    Regard, Dobias

    in Juniper I tried below commands to auto rollack of config.

     

    [edit system archival configuration]
    archive-sites {
    ftp://username<:password>@host-address<:port>/url-path;
    scp://username<:password>@host-address<:port>/url-path;
    }
    transfer-interval interval;
    transfer-on-commit;

    switch(config)# crypto key generate ssh
    switch(config)# ip ssh filetransfer
    TFTP and auto-TFTP are now disabled because they cannot be secured with SSH. TFTP can be reenabled with the 'tftp' command.

     

    auto-tftp no longer enabled by default because not secure

    Hello,

     

    you should try creating an alias with the commands you need.

     

    alias new-wrmem "wr mem

    copy running sftp lala@x.x.x.x

    password"

     

    I don't believe you can SCP directly from a switch though.
