Hi Monks

I want to login to bgp to run few commands often so i thought of making script to run those commands and i used

Net::SSH::Perl

to login to bgp and run a command..the script is as follows

#!/usr/bin/perl
use Net::SSH::Perl;
use POSIX qw(strftime);
$time = strftime "%d-%b-%Y", localtime;
$host = "XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX";
$username = "user";
$password = "password";
$port = "XXXX";
$ssh = Net::SSH::Perl->new($host,port=>"$port",protocol=>2);
@array = $ssh->login($username,$password);
#@ary = $ssh ->cmd("show arp");
@data = $ssh->cmd("show interfaces");
print "@array\n@data\n";
@data2 = $ssh ->cmd("exit");
print "@data2\n";

if i run the above script it will login but it prints invalid command show

please some one suggest how to solve this problem

Thanks in advance
