Hi, there,
In addition to telnet, is there any other method to access Cisco 12000 Series routers? Do they have open library (i.e. API) for research and development? Thanks.

You can also use ssh, rcmd and snmp to manage the router remotely.
Hope this helps,

Thanks. Is there any low level library, which can be called from high level language (like C/C++)?

Not currently. Maybe in the near future.

It really helps. When time/delay matters, among telnet, ssh, rcmd, and snmp, which one is more time efficient? Thank you.

There are several perl (and probably python, ruby, etc) libraries for telnet access and snmp access specifically for Cisco equipment.
Check out sourceforge and CPAN for (perl)net::telnet:cisco and net::snmp:cisco .... something like that.
Good Luck
