Re: OT: network inventory [In reply to]

Mostly. By default, rancid does remove cisco obfuscated passwords (the
ones that are trivially decrypted), so if you just copy a config from
rancid back to a device, it may not quite be fully functional...but the
first time someone does a write mem on a big router running a boot image
or other software that doesn't support all the features being used, you'll
be glad you have the config backed up by rancid.
