I am attempting to use Net::SSH2::Cisco to issue a command to a Cisco phone server. It's not an issue if it's a command which doesn't require any kind of confirmation but if it does I can't seem to get it right. Here is what I am trying to do

#!/usr/bin/perl

use warnings;
use strict;
use Net::SSH2::Cisco;

my $host = '<my_host>';
my $user = '<my_user>';
my $password = '<my_password>';

my $session = Net::SSH2::Cisco->new(host => $host);

$session->login(username => $user, password => $password);
 
my $match = '/^.+\[(confirm)\]/';
my $command = 'service-module integrated-Service-Engine 0/0 shutdown';
my @config = $session->cmd(String => $command, Prompt => $match);
$session->close;

print @config;
[download]

If I go and check the status of the service module it has not been issued a shutdown command but the script completes without any errors or warnings

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks in advice

----- UPDATE -----

I figured it out, it was pretty simple. Here's all I had to do

#!/usr/bin/perl

use warnings;
use strict;
use Net::SSH2::Cisco;

my $host = '<my_host>';
my $user = '<my_user>';
my $password = '<my_password>';

my $session = Net::SSH2::Cisco->new(host => $host);

$session->login(username => $user, password => $password);
 
my @config = $session->cmd("service-module integrated-Service-Engine 0
+/0 shutdown\n\n\n");
$session->close;

print @config;
[download]

I didn't actually have to look for a prompt I just needed to send enter to the command line

Thanks for reading
