use Net::Telnet ();
$t = new Net::Telnet (Timeout => 5,
                      output_log => "c:\DP\Perl\output.log",
                      Host => "172.20.40.1");
#$t->open("172.20.40.1");
#$t->login($username, $passwd);
@v1 = $t->cmd("\cY");
print @v1;
@v2 = $t->cmd("c");
print @v2;
#$t->print("\cY");
#$t->print("c");
@v1 = $t->cmd("sh ip");

I donīt understand the reference?? This script will leave unattended, i not sure that "sub ctrl" do that i want, or maybe i donīt give a good explain . I try to create a script in Perl to do a Telnet to Switch, i describe the step: after i type telnet 172.20.40.1, the switch show me a message: "Press Ctrl-Y to begin", after show a menu, donīt ask me for user or password because i disable that. In the menu i have to press "C" to enter "Command Line Mode" and then write all commands to configurate the switch; next i have to type exit and will back to menu, next press "l" to logout of telnet. OK? All this i try to do a script unattended. Itīs possible? Well,i probe the "sub ctrl" but if any other sugestion will welcome, Thanks a lot. (sorry for my english)

• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
