Hi
Two questions


1). is is possible to set a cron jobn on Airwave ( 8.2.3,x) to export a nightly backup config tar.,gz to a remote scp server ?

2). our Airwave has aciopy of all switch confogs on it. Is is possible to use ethe API set to pull individial switch configs from AirWave onto another host ?

Yes, we can set a cron job to get the nightly backup file transfered. However, 8.2.3.x is already out of support and i would suggest moving to latter code, where we already have this(transfer to FTP) as an option in the menu.

I dont see an API in the guide for fetching the switch config alone.

The option is in the CLI. We have to login as ampadmin. From the menu choose option 2(Backups) --> 1(backup) --> 2(Configure Automatic Transfer)
