Q: CAN you repeatedly SSH from within a TCL script to, for example, a radio . . .

[tproeber]

. .. to get the current Line Rate to then write that speed to the Bandwidth statement for an Interface to make routine protocols more accurate over radio links with varying modulations?

My Googling says tells me that you can log in but any commands you issue will hang.  Can you SSH and retrieve command results from remote hosts in Cisco TCL?

Thanks!

Statement 50 is the password -- it's the correct password -- I can manually do the steps.

Thanks,

Found it -- I had to escape the $ sign in the password.

Progress!

Thanks,

I can SSH to the radio!

Now I need to extract the TX ands RX rates and range -- is this how I would do it?

event manager applet Radio-Reader

event timer watchdog time 10

action 010 cli command "enable"

action 020 cli command "ssh -l ubnt 192.168.2.11" pattern "assword:"

action 050 cli command "fly2the*" pattern "#"

action 060 cli command "mca-status" pattern "#"

action 070 regexp "wlanTxRate=[0-9]{1,3}" "$_cli_result"

action 080 set 900Mhz-TX "$_regexp_result"

action 090 regexp "wlanRxRate=[0-9]{1,3}" "$_cli_result"

action 100 set 900Mhz-RX "$_regexp_result"

action 110 regexp "distance=[0-9]{1,3}" "$_cli_result"

action 120 set 900Mhz-Distance "$_regexp_result"

***** This is the output of the "mca-status" command:

Don't over-think it.  Use as simple expression as you can:

regexp "wlanTxRate=([0-9\.]+)" $_cli_result match txrate

puts "TxRate is $txrate"

==> TxRate is 260.0
