I am backing up a Cisco ASA 5520 which is acting as a VPN firewall, problem is the config NCM is downloading for me is not enough. A "show run" command does not display enough information for me such as pre-shared keys. It's my understanding that NCM uses device templates to know what commands to run on a device it's backing up. So in the Edit Properties page for a node in the Communication box where the deice template drop down list is we usually leave it to auto determine, I know this tells NCM to find the correct OID on the device to determine what type of template to use.
NCM is obviously finding the correct template for the device in question here's the commands...
<Commands>
<Command Name="RESET" Value="terminal pager 0"/>
<Command Name="Reboot" Value="reload noconfirm"/>
<Command Name="EnterConfigMode" Value="config terminal"/>
<Command Name="ExitConfigMode" Value="quit"/>
<Command Name="Startup" Value="startup"/>
<Command Name="Running" Value="running"/>
<Command Name="DownloadConfig" Value="Show ${ConfigType}"/>
<Command Name="UploadConfig" Value="${EnterConfigMode}${CRLF}${ConfigText}${CRLF}${ExitConfigMode}"/>
<Command Name="DownloadConfigIndirect" Value="write net ${StorageAddress}:/${StorageFilename}"/>
<Command Name="UploadConfigIndirect"/>
<Command Name="EraseConfig" Value="write erase${CRLF}Yes"/>
<Command Name="SaveConfig" Value="write memory"/>
<Command Name="Version" Value="show version"/>
</Commands>
</Configuration-Management>
The command I am sure NCM is using is <Command Name="DownloadConfig" Value="Show ${ConfigType}"/> I am sure. How would I go about getting the command
"more system:running-config"? Could I alter the device template or where could I get one that would suit. What is the usual practice for this? I'm sure I'm not the first person to encounter this issue.TIA
