Oh how I wish they did. Cisco didn't add that functionality until IOS 15.0.1(M1) or so. Most of our routers are still in the 12.x train. I am actually controlling some F5's with Net::SSH in the manner in which you are suggesting. It works very well except for one thing. I wrote this module as a threaded app with ithreads and Net::SSH isn't thread safe. I found thanks to this site that Net::SSH::Perl isn't thread safe either. What I may end up doing is moving all of the Cisco routers into code that uses Net::SSH::Perl and use parent/child forking. I suppose I never really found out whether Net::OpenSSH is thread safe. I went looking for it and never found the information.

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).
