EEM applet for ssh connection between cisco nexus 7010

[Igor Pestov]

Hello experts!!!

Please help  write applet for ssh connection between cisco nexus 7010.

How to get authorization for ssh connection.?.How enter password for ssh connect?

My sample applet:

event manager applet test

event syslog pattern "xxxxx"

  action 1.0 cli ssh event_manager@x.x.x.x

  action 1.1 cli conf t

  action 1.3 cli int lo333

  action 1.4 cli desc ttttttt

This is not possible using NX-OS as the ability to do interactive commands does not exist.

[Igor Pestov]

Maybe there is any other way to execute a command on the remote device?

[Joe Clarke]

What you could do is use EEM to send a syslog message to a syslog host.  That host would then need a script (e.g., expect) that could connect to the remote host to perform the desired actions.

Bad that nx-os no rsh ... I performed on ios cover those actions using rsh.

Still question: under which user performed event manager applets? (nx-os)

In cisco ios can be set out under which user to run applets:

event manager session cli username "event_manager"

[Joe Clarke]

The commands will be run as the user __eemuser.

[Igor Pestov]

Can I customize privilege the user __eemuser ? Add sshkey for user __eemuser?

[Joe Clarke]

I haven't tried.  It may work, but any changes to the permissions could also prevent EEM applets from running.

Thanks Joseph!
