in thread telnet from a cisco telnet

@output=$t->print("show system"); $t->waitfor('m/]>/');

This cannot work, because the output of show system will only be available after you have assigned it into @output. You will need to use $t->cmd(...) to collect the output of a command.

    the other device which i am doing telnet from cisco router is not a cisco device thats why im using ...but i change like u suggested but i got a timeout message at that line.. thank u....
    $t->print(..);

      If you get a timeout, then the prompt that your appliance uses is not a prompt that is recognized by Net::Telnet::Cisco (or Net::Telnet). Read the documentation and supply the appropriate prompt, and everything should work.
