Re: [pfSense] Best automated configuration backup options for 2.1.5?

[Vick Khera]

Here's my config file backup script bits for pfSense:

curl -k -c ${COOKIEFILE} -d
"login=Login=admin=$FWPASS"
https://${FWHOST}/diag_backup.php
curl -k -b ${COOKIEFILE} -d "Submit=download=checked"
-o config-${FWHOST}.xml https://${FWHOST}/diag_backup.php

where COOKIEFILE is some secure temp file name. the rest of the
variables should be obvious.

As I recall, this works for 2.0 and up. Definitely works for the most
current release.

Thanks, I got AutoConfigBackup working.

I'm double set now, as I'm also running this nightly
https://github.com/edgauthier/pfsense-backup (It's pull, like the wget
method in the book, but seems cleaner.)

Thanks,
Brian

AutoConfigBackup for Gold subscribers works well and is very easy to setup.

https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/AutoConfigBackup

I am not sure if it works with 2.1.5

Otherwise you can try the methods here to push or pull the config to
another system: https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Remote_Config_Backup

[pfSense] Best automated configuration backup options for 2.1.5?

[Brian Gupta]

It looks like most are for 1.x.
