Add a mount point for an ASA


I have found a nice feature on the Cisco ASA. You can create a mount point to a server FTP.
Below you can find a sample of the configuration to  apply:

mount Backup-ASA type ftp
 server 10.10.10.10
 path /root/Backup
 username  userFTP
 password passwordFT
 mode passive
 status enable

To check all the configuration available on this particular folder you can use the command 'dir':

ASA# dir Backup-ASA:
Directory of Backup-ASA:/
       -rwx  71147       19:37:00 Jul 14 2011  ASA-14jul11.txt
       -rwx  79337       16:41:00 Jan 31 2012  ASA-09-02-2012.txt
0 bytes total (2146293760 bytes free)

This trick can be useful to backup easily the running configuration on remote folder:

ASA#copy running-config Backup-ASA
