Re: Multi context firewall: is it possible to back up each context and also unobfuscated pre shared keys when more system:running-config only works in certain contexts?

Thanks Johnny Ringo appreciate the input sorry I've been so late getting back. Have you managed this in your own environment? I'd like to run this on about 5 Firewalls, why'd you ask?

Re: 1) Create a copy of the ASA Device Template and Modify the Download Config Command for the commands you want.  Then under the nodes with multiple contexts you could change the Device Template they use to the new one.  This would allow you to use the same NCM job.

I can't "change the Device Template they use to the new one" because I can only point a device at one template? By doing this I'd be able to run "more system: running" within the system context but that command would be unrecognised in admin and firewall contexts and fail.

Re: 2) I have to say I'm not so sure what you mean by this? Also the sysntax, the position of '<>' characters? Is below what you're suggesting?
