Cisco iOS profile automatic backup All commands are as follows:

router> < normal login interface >

Router>enable < access privileged mode >

Router#configure Terminal < into global configuration mode >

Router (config) #archive < Enter archive configuration mode >

Router (config-archive) #write-memory < save configuration >

Router (config-archive) #path Backup Destination address/Backup build file name < Configure backup file build path, filename >

Example: Router (config-archive) #path flash:/ Backup target path/$h-config < Configure backup files in Flash build >

Router (config-archive) #path ftp://IP address/$h-config < Configure backup files in FTP generation > (recommended)

Where: The URL path of ' $h ' is automatically replaced with the hostname. $h-config is the base file name, and parameters are automatically added after the backup succeeds, such as $h-config-1, $h-config-2 ... $h-config-*, etc. Backup generation file support time wildcard.

Router (config-archive) #write-memory < save configuration >

Router (config-archive) #time-period backup interval (minutes) < set up Configure backup interval time >

Example: Router (config-archive) #time-period 10080 < settings are backed up 1 times every 10,080 minutes (1 weeks) >

Router (config-archive) #exit < Exit archive configuration mode >
