VBS script to backup Cisco configs

Dec 01, 2005 1 Replies

Hello,



I need some assistance on a script I am writing. Its purpose is to backup running-config files from Cisco switches via telnet and TFTP.



I need to address the following problems...


  1. All the DOS windows open at once, I would like them to open in order.
  2. All the uploaded file names are identical. Hence the previous ones are overwritten
  3. I would like the script to read from a text file of IPs

Any pointers in the right direction would be appreciated.



Many thanks.
