Ps Config Archiving

Problem this snippet solves:

This PowerShell application performs archiving and restoring of your BIG-IP configuration.

Let's face it, we like to believe that disaster will never happen, but how many times have you accidentally deleted a document you have been working on for a presentation without a working backup? Odds are more than once. If it can happen on your desktop, then it can happen on the network and imagine the situation where your network configuration is running the bread and butter for your company. Wouldn't it be nice to have the knowledge that your network configuration is securely archived for easy recovery? Well, this application performs configuration archiving for a BIG-IP device by allowing for the creation of configuration restore points as well as remote file upload/download capabilities.
