subversion as a Cisco Configuration Repository (svn)

Build a Custom Cisco Configuration Repository
subversion can be used for more than program storage, this article explains how to store cisco configuration files in a repository.

use Subversion and some simple scripts to mimic the CiscoWorks functionality. Subversion is a control versioning system that aims to replace CVS. It's primarily HTTP-based, which makes it a convenient platform for storing configurations that are accessible from any Web browser. I have an additional Web-based interface, called ViewCVS on my Cisco configuration repository, making it easy to view running router configurations while in a meeting, and useful for simply evaluating what has changed on my network recently. But an additional advantage to this type of storage is that you can automatically create up-to-date configurations for disaster recovery scenarios.
