Multi Router Configuration Backup (MRCB)

Multi Router Configuration Backup is a utility to back up the configuration of multiple MikroTik devices on the network in the form of:

It is intended to be run on a regular basis. New configuration backups are kept only if new export differs from the last one that was preserved in the same way.

How does it work?

MRCB connects to remote MikroTik devices via SSH and executes the necessary commands to generate system backup (mrcb_#######.backup) and configuration export (mrcb_#######.rsc) files (where # is random lowercase or uppercase ASCII letter or digit). It then retrieves these files by SFTP and compares the new export with the last backed up version excluding comments (i.e. lines beginning with #). If exports are the same the new backup and export files are deleted preserving disk space and keeping history of changes clean. Otherwise, the new export and backup are preserved for reference and quick restore, respectively.
