There is an open source tool called rancid that does what you need and it is free.

I am kind of new to R&S, I have a little over a year of configuring routers and switches and really kind of fell into it when we were short staffed, so I fell in love. Well, because I was the "new guy" I didn't get to do a ton, I did but not some of the more fun stuff. So now I am on the pursuit for the CCIE and I got a question about something in the real world and maybe someone knows.

Is there a management suite, utility, etc that's low cost (preferably free! since I am unemployed :) ) that will extract configurations automatically? I am sure the answer is yes. I am aware of something we used at work which was "Network General" But I wasn't cool enough to be invited to ever touch that. This is really a question of real world, but I would like something to play around with so I can be more versatile when a employer hires me.

As with anything, I am learning the HARD HARD HARD (yes 3x hard) way that there are 2 parts to the CCIE. Ambition and then the second part is patience. I have the first part (don't we all?), and I am learning the second.

Ok that's it. Thanks in advance, happy studying and have a good weekend - I'll be telling my wife "It's that magic time again STUDY TIME WOOT!" then she'll give me the "evil eye" and I'll be on my way :) haha.
