Export configuration

Is their a way to export the firewall configuration to a TFTP? I can run the command save configuration <file>, but that saves the config file to the local firewall.

Thank you,

Greg

Not as far as I know.
What's your goal here?

I am trying to make a quick way to back up the configs on all my firewalls. This way I can the one command and have the new config sent to my backup server.

The save configuration does not backup the full configuration of you GAIA Gateway. Next to that keep in mind that TFTP is a very simple protocol and when you just copy over the file, that file is sent in clear text.
The backup command on the gateway has a SCP option integrated, so why make it harder on yourself?
