Hello everybody,

I want to add 1 access control list entry on more than 60 cisco devices. Please guide if there is another way to do this apart from manually login to each device and add the entry. Thank you.

I am aware of these solutions and they are paid software. Is there any other way to achieve this ?

Thank you very much Jigar. Putty Command Sender made the job easier although it was not completely automated.

1. I Putty Telnetted (logged in) into 10 devices at a time on which I wanted to issue the commands.

2. Opened Putty Command Sender and seleted "All Puttys" under Putty Filter.

3. Clicked on "Tile" button to tile Putty Windows on Desktop so that I can see whats going on the devices.

4. Issued "Config t"..Pressed Enter key.

5. Issues Access List command..Pressed Enter Key

6. Typed Exit and then saved config using "copy run start"

7. Verified with "show access-list" command

8. Typed Exit and it closed all opened Putty Windows

Once again thanks.
