Backup Scripts - A collection of useful backup scripts that will backup network infrastructure items such as:

* Sonicwall Firewalls
* HP Procurve Switches (scp support needed)
* Bluecoat Packetshapers
* Vyatta Routers

This script can backup any number of sonicwalls on your network to a given FTP server, simply schedule it with cron.

The filename for the backup is:

  prefs_[description]_[datetimestamp].exp

Where [description] is the description you assign in the appliance declaration, and [datetimetamp] is the timestamp in the format yyyymmddhhmmss.

  SONICWALLS = (
  ('192.168.168.168','admin', 'password', 'TEST-FW', 'NSA 2400'),
  ('192.168.168.168','admin', 'password', 'TEST-FW-2', 'NSA 2400'),
  )

The format for the above tuple items is as follows:

  ('IP Address','username', 'password', 'host-description', 'System Name')

System Name MUST match the host name when you log into the system e.g.

  NSA 2400>

In the above default NSA 2400 config, the system name MUST be NSA 2400 otherwise the backup will fail to run.

  FTP_SERVER = '10.xxx.xxx.xxx'   						   #FTP Server Address
  FTP_USERNAME = 'myftpusername'							#FTP Username
  FTP_PASSWORD = 'mystrongpassword'						#FTP Password

Simply replace the above strings with your details at the top of the file before running.
