CiscoWorks LMS - RME - vlan.dat retrieval method

Hi all,

(semi-OT)

Can anyone confirm whether or not RME (4.1) supports secure copy (SCP)
as a transport for retrieving 'vlan.dat' files from catalyst/IOS
switches?

I know it's _technically_ possible -- I've proven it using 'scp'
manually -- but it's not clear to me from reading the RME user guide
whether the product will actually do it. Furthermore, I found some
posts in other forums which seemed to suggest vlan.dat retrieval is
always performed using TFTP from within a (scripted) interactive
session using telnet or SSH.

Seems crazy, but it'll be a few days before I can test it out myself,
so it'd be handy to hear from *someone who's already doing this*.

cheers,
Dale
