tools to get a mirror of modem/router configuration

["H.S." <hs.samix@gmail.com>]

Hello,

I vaguely recall that we can somehow "copy" or mirror the configuration
interface (accessible via a browser) of a modem or a router to a local
hard disk. This can be then browsed from that saved copy. Anybody know
if we have tools or packages in Debian to do so?

The objective is to 'mirror' the configuration of a modem so that I can
walk the user through the configuration steps whenever need be (I can
click through the interface on my copy and the user will be browsing his
modem's actual interface).

Thanks.
