I am using Net::Telnet::Cisco to get itno the routers in Cisco 6000 chassis running hybrid. This works fine and I can do everything I want in the routers. However, I would like to change the script to enter through the switch and then session into the routers. This will allow me to get more information on the layer 3 interfaces. The problem is that I cannot enter the switch. if I have the wrong pass word it tells me that, but when I have the correct password it gives me the following message:
"Use of uninitialized value in pattern match (m//) at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/Net/Telnet/Cisco.pm line 410, <STDIN> line 2."
It then times out when I try to run the next command. Does anyone have any idea of what I am doing wrong?
