Palo Alto configuration backup
I setup the Script to backup Palo Alto firewall, seem it fail on "show config running", but others is fine.

@login

[running-config] set cli scripting-mode on

[running-config] set cli pager off

[running-config] show system info

[running-config] show config running

[running-config] set cli pager on

Is any way to troubleshoot this kind of problem?

    The script is work, the problem for mine is the configuration have some Chinese simple character which causes the problem. After I configure the OS to use Chinese simple for non-unicode, it's work.

      Hi HK IT

      I am also having issue to backup running configure of Palo Alto device. From cli, it only shows me a text format, not xml format. May I ask which Whatsup Gold script you use and how you change the OS to use Chinese simple for non-unicode?

       

      Thanks so much

    HI all, has the issue been resolved? Has anybody got script tested to backup Palo Alto configuration? Thanks.

    By the way, I understand Palo Alto config is in XML format, so the config backup may work except version comparison, right?
