Script for acl automation

[mialbert]

I have a number of asa acl's that need to be updated on a periodic basis.  They are all updated in a similar manner but just have three variables that change for each entry.  I would like to have a method to automate this.  What i'm wondering if can be done is to enter three variables(acl name, line number, destination subnet etc)and have the ace returned as output.  Is this something that can be done in perl, eem, tcl, or something else?

Hi

Not 100% sure (has to be validated) tcl isn't supported on asa.

The best way to handle that is running a perl or python script that'll connect on all your boxes and get these informations for you.

With which tool are you more comfortable.

Behind the scene, you'll need to paste the acl output to get the line you requested through a variable.
