      I've got a new client with a pfSense router and I need to reset it as they dont trust their old IT support guy.
      Before I reset the config and re-build this from scratch, I want to examine all the settings.
      Is there an easy way to view the entire configuration? I know I can do this with some of the Cisco products I manage, and I'm hoping there's something similar in the pfSense world.
      Thanks,
      Ken C.

        The entire running config can be backed up from Diag > Backup/Restore.

        The file is /conf/config.xml if you're digging through the filesystem directly.
