Backup Module

How to

The module allows making tasks on the backup groups of devices (Cisco, HP, Huawei, MikroTik and e.t.c) with the set parameters. In order for the module to work it is necessary to make sure that it is installed and running in Settings

  • * mupsbox services interacting with mikrotik ros do not use telnet or ssh; in the current version the service with mikrotik ros uses only api

Mikrotik jobs

When you click on the Mikrotik jobs tab, you will see the following window:

Backup jobs

There are 8 buttons on the Jobs tab:

  • Add backup job - Add backup job
  • Delete backup job - Delete backup job
  • Enable backup job - Enable backup job
  • Disable backup job - Disable backup job
  • Manual start backup job immediately - Manual start backup job immediately
  • Refresh list of backup jobs - Refresh list of backup jobs
  • Settings backup - Save Backup Settings to file
  • Settings restore - Restore Backup Settings from file

The filter box is available for find appropriate backup job:

Filter box

Add backup job

In order for the program create backup on your routers, you must click on the Add backup job, then the Edit job window will open:

Edit job

  • Job name - name of the job
  • Source - select a group of routers from which we want create backup data
  • Destination - local or network place where backup copies will collected. First time Destination should be configured on Destination Tab
  • Backup mode - there are six modes: system backup, export compact, export verbose for ROSv6, Mupsbox settings backup, Dude DB and User Manager DB
  • Schedule - there are three schedule modes: manual, daily, monthly
  • Encryption - ecnryption string what new backup will be encrypted. For system backup only applied.
  • Export path - Export not all backup configuration, only part backup configuration what start header of part backup configuration. For export compact and export verbose only applied.

If daily or monthly schedule mode was chosen backup service will automaticaly start. Backup service should be started.

The Daily backup provides start backup day or days of week:

Backup daily

The Monthly backup provides start backup day of week:

Backup monthly

The backup module can send email notification every time when a backup job was finished. For that action option "send an email notification after backup job" should be marked. If the recipient field will blank, a global notification email will be used instead.

The backup module can show differential information only for export compact and export verbose backup mode by email notification. At the same time, a full backup will save on an appropriate backup destination. Differential information will be marked by different colors. There are the next differential options:

  • Diff enable - enable a differential option for a backup job
  • Previous backup № - backup job compare information between current backup and appropriate № backup. For Example, if Previous backup # chosen 3 for a daily backup job, differential information between current backup and 3 days ago backup will be saved.
  • show all - send HTML file including all backup configuration by email notification.
  • miss first string - same as "show all". The first string will not include in a report.
  • difference - send HTML file differential backup configuration by email notification.
  • miss first string - same as "difference". The first string will not include in a report.

Retention option can be used by the backup module for deletion old backup copies and keep disk space of backup destination on the same level. The number of retention copies provides to save that number on backup destination. Other copies will delete by the next running backup job.

Open ports must be used if access to the router from ftp and sftp ports is prohibited in your firewall


Destination

The location that will keep backup copies should be configured on Destination tab.

Destination

There are 3 buttons on the Jobs tab:

  • Add backup destination - Add backup destination
  • Delete backup destination - Delete backup destination
  • Check connection to FTP destination - Check connection to FTP destination

Add backup destination

For create new backup destination, you must click on the Add backup destination, then the Edit destination window will open:

Add Destination

  • Name - name of the backup destination
  • IP version - There is IP protocol communication to FTP or SFTP server. Be sure that IP V4 or IP V6 addresses applied in Device module.
  • Type of destination - There is destination can be ether to FTP/SFTP server (screenshot above) or to network folder (screenshot below).
  • Destination - local or network place where backup copies will collected. First time Destination should be configured on Destination Tab
