Backup Scripts - A collection of useful backup scripts that will backup network infrastructure items starting with:

* Sonicwall Firewalls

Configuration

sonicwall.py:

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.

Defining appliances within your csv target file:

0.0.0.0,admin,pass,client_gateway,host_name,2016
1.1.1.1,admin,pass,client_gateway,host_name,2015
2.2.2.2,admin,pass,client_gateway,host_name,2012
3.3.3.3,admin,pass,client_gateway,host_name,2010

Return down to add new padding when adding a host in to be remotely backed up with ftp/ssh.

The tuple items are automatically parsed from the reader + list to the following tuple format 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.

Defining FTP Server Details:

  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.
