[rancid] Re: rancid with Cisco ASA 5520 in Multiple Context Mode

Sam, you're not missing any magic command.

The system context contains the physical interface configurations as well as the context configurations, which include the interface and resource allocations for each context.  All of this is critical information if you need to rebuild a multi-context ASA configuration from scratch after a hardware failure, say.

Really? My system context just shows the context allocations, but not
the context config. Is there a magic command I'm missing?
