Does anyone have any tips on how I can backup all the flash in files on my cisco routers. I know how to do them one at a time, but I have a lot of files in flash. And would like to know if it is possible to backup all of the files at one time, or with less key strokes.

Thanks Nick

Kiwi (now Solarwinds) Cat Tools are pretty handy for backing up just about anything from a bunch of devices at once. Up to 20 devices is free, after that it will cost you some.

check if you router support command

archive tar

using this command you can archiving all files in the flash then copy then to tftp or ftp

check cisco software (Cisco Network Assistant )

I think wat ciscocrank means is that you use the archive function to archive all of your files into a single tar file, then you only have to copy one file to your TFTP server.

The benefit is that you could script this easily and that you only have to do one file transfer. The downside is that the tar file will take up space on flash, so you would need enough space to store all your files, plus a tar file with all your files in it.
