[Cisco] Auto Archive Configuration – Save Cisco Config Periodically

Tired of saving your cisco configuration manually ?
And changes made very often & too lazy to back up.
This how to save your configuration automatically & periodically.
– Below sample save in weekly period.
– And save configuration weekly to disk2 of my Core Router.

But firstly check your IOS support or not (12.4 for e.g).
Here how to check :

Your-ROUTER(config)#archive

How to configure :

Core-1(config)#archive
Core-1(config-archive)#path disk2:config-backup
Core-1(config-archive)#time-period 604800
Core-1#dir disk2: (sample)
5  -rw-        3276  Sep 12 2008 10:14:02 +07:00  config-backup

Other options at archive level :

default              Set a command to its defaults
exit                  Exit from archive configuration mode
log                   Logging commands
maximum        Maximum number of backup copies
no                    Negate a command or set its defaults
path                 Path for backups
rollback           Rollback parameters
time-period     Period of time in minutes to automatically archive the running-config
write-memory  Enable automatic backup generation during write memory

[Mobile Internet] Like Telkomsel Flash, INDOSAT launched “ISAT Eco”

Since 1.5 GB Volume Based I’ve subscribed limited for 3 months “low rate” promotion.
And as well justifying 1.5 GB is pretty much againts my requirement.
Choosing INDOSAT Eco should fits what I need (POP3, SSH, Telnet, bit browsing).

-
ISAT Eco is Unlimited Product with speed of 256 Kbps till 2GB of volume achieved.
Exceeding this defined quota the speed will be adjusted to 64 kbps.
Not bad, 2 GB still pretty much quota I need to spent .

Now I don’t have to worry for quota over limit & pay for that over usage.
Though I believed, I even couldn’t spent this 2GB in a month
All I need to pay is Rp. 100.000 or with Tax will be Rp 110.000 (USD 110).

The Experience…
Even sometimes my bandwidth meter shows that it’s not really 256 kbps strictly allocated but burst a bit higher.

This just my test this morning [Sept, 15] I believe BTS-BSC-MSC in idle capacity due to everybody in a meeting or meet they boss for reports.

[IPv6] Mikrotik Hotspot Not Working – IPv6 Installed on NIC

Till now I don’t have a good solution for running IPv6 simultanously with Mikrotik Wireless Hotspot.
The condition :

- Your LAN has a dual stack IPv6 / IPv4 installed
- You have to connect to Mikrotik Hotspot Gateway Enabled
- Your first access is browsing and will be redirected to Mikrotik Login Page

The Issue :

No matter you LAN NIC UP/DOWN or we can say connected or not..
With IPv6/IPv4 Dual stack installed, Your Wifi status is Connected but You have error page “Address Not Found” while trying to browse to log in.

What I have done :

Uninstalling IPv6 on Your NIC will help much.
The redirected login page, will be nicely appear waiting for your to enter username & password
It’s not happened on my another wifi network.

[Cisco-Juniper] SSH from Cisco Router to Juniper OS

Spending my time…
Trying to limit login from certain hosts include Cisco routers (OS Version Image : c7200-jk9o3s-mz.123-13.bin”) on a Juniper. The connection allowed is ssh.

Allowing cisco routers doesn’t seem to give a remote login successfully connected.

Cisco#ssh -l boss 192.168.1.145 [connection error:0]

Got this SSH log error on Juniper show log message tailed :

The symptom : Your outbound SSH on Cisco Router is version 1, while your juniper by default is version 2. Please add/enable ssh protocol-version 2 (v2) as well.. on your Juniper.

You@JunOS-GW# show
ssh {
root-login deny;
protocol-version [ v2 v1 ];
connection-limit 10;
}

[edit system services]

you@JunOS#set system services ssh protocol-version v1
you@JunOS#set system services ssh protocol-version v2
you@JunOS#set system services ssh protocol-version v1 v2 (nope sure this one ) try it)

Then commit ! [Thanks to Ang Kah from Bangky.Net for Inspiring]
