How to use EEM TCL Script in Router?

Dipesh Patel
Level 2
Level 2

Dear  All,

I have prepared one TCl Script (it's 1st for testing and understanding).

********************************************** TEST.tcl *******************************************

::cisco::eem::event_register_syslog pattern "Interface FastEthernet0/0, changed state to up"

namespace import ::cisco::eem::*
namespace import ::cisco::lib::*

array set arr_einfo [event_reqinfo]

action_script status enable

if {[catch {cli_exec $cli_fd(fd) "enable"} result]} {error $result $errorInfo}

if {[catch {cli_exec $cli_fd(fd) "int fa0/1"} result]} {error $result $errorInfo}

if {[catch {cli_exec $cli_fd(fd) "shut"} result]} {error $result $errorInfo}

action_syslog msg "New Port is up now"

if {[catch {cli_close $cli_fd(fd) $cli_fd(tty_id)} result]} {error $result $errorInfo}

********************************************** TEST.tcl *******************************************

Can anybody tell me how can I use this script in Router which will be use when ever my interface fa0/0 up it will make fa0/1 in shutdown mode?

Can you provide me the steps to do in router?

Whar are the pre-requisite for the use of this?

Regards

Virtually any command, yes.  You cannot do '?' like you can from an interactive session, but you can execute all EXEC and config commands otherwise.

You don't need a Tcl script for this.  You can use this applet instead:

event manager applet intf-shut

event syslog pattern "Interface FastEthernet0/0, changed state to up"

action 1.0 cli command "enable"

action 2.0 cli command "config t"

action 3.0 cli command "int fa0/1"

action 4.0 cli command "shut"

action 5.0 cli command "end"

Dear Joseph,

Yes, I agree but I wan to understand how to use tcl script. It's just an example.

Can you give the steps for executing EEM TCL script?

Regards

Your Tcl policy is wrong to begin with.  You would first need to open the CLI session.  However, assuming you have a working policy, copy it to a location on the device's local flash (I like flash:/policies).  Then register that location with the EEM server:

event manager directory user policy flash:/policies

Finally, register your EEM Tcl policy:

event manager policy TEST.tcl

That's it.  Now, when the syslog message is generated, your policy will be triggered.

Hi,

In EEM APPLET, We can execute any CLI cmds?

Regards

Virtually any command, yes.  You cannot do '?' like you can from an interactive session, but you can execute all EXEC and config commands otherwise.

Dear Joseph,

Please verify my script , is it ok? Will it work?  Plrease suggest.

Purpose : Track the 2nd wan link, if it will be down than the sown ACL will be applied on Interface and if link up again ACL will be removed.

You appear to have combined two policies into one, which will not work.  You need to separate these two out at the event detector lines and put them into two .tcl files.  You will then need to add the missing CLI close and open events to both.

Dear Clarke,

I have separate the policy in to two part and tried to run. i.e.

BLOCK.tcl

When I have run the olicy, the policy is working and action syslog is displayed but the the CLI CMD which i want to execute , are not applied on interface i.e.  ip access-group BLOCK out and  no ip access-group BLOCK out

We are using TACACS+ with the policy :

aaa new-model

!

!

aaa authentication login local_authen local

aaa authentication login RADIUS_AUTH group tacacs+

aaa authorization config-commands

aaa authorization exec RADIUS_AUTH group tacacs+ local if-authenticated

aaa authorization commands 0 default group tacacs+ local if-authenticated

aaa authorization commands 1 default group tacacs+ local if-authenticated

aaa authorization commands 15 default group tacacs+ local if-authenticated

aaa accounting exec default start-stop group tacacs+

aaa accounting commands 0 default start-stop group tacacs+

aaa accounting commands 1 default start-stop group tacacs+

aaa accounting commands 15 default start-stop group tacacs+

!

Pls suggest how can i resolve this issue? How can I execute the CLI cmds via TCL script?

Regards

Configure the following:

event manager session cli username USER

Where USER is a username authorized to run all of the CLI commands in your EEM applets (e.g., your username).

I have tried the same but still not working.

Enable "debug event manager tcl cli", trigger one of your applets, then post the output.

Dipesh did were you able to get this to work with Joseph's recommendations?
