Simple Cisco config backup

This is a simple Python script to backup the running-config of multiple switches contained in a CSV file.

Prerequisites

Install the Netmiko library with pip.

pip install netmiko

Usage

Create a CSV file named switches.csv containing the switch in the following format hostname,ip address.

SW-NewYork-01,192.168.25.10
SW-SanFran-01,172.16.0.10
SW-Dallas-01,10.0.0.10

The CSV file must be located in the same directory as the Python script.

The script will check the CSV file, ping the device and if the ping is successful, it saves the running config.

The configuration files will be saved in the same directory as the script.
