# COMMENTS: Uses the Telnet::Cisco module to copy a Cisco Router's running
# configuration to the local machine. This module uses telnet so passwords
# will be in clear text. Pass the Cisco Router's DNS name or IP, logfile name,
# username, and password to the Sub. The script will back up the running
# config to the scripts location.
