Hey there Monks, i'd like to extract the logs of a mikrotik router through telnet. The problem with my code is that it won't wait for the prompts to appear before executing the next command. Can you help me with it?
sub get_log { my $client = new Net::Telnet; open(LOG,">/tmp/telnet.log"); $client->dump_log("/tmp/dump.log"); $client->open($_[0]); my $prompt = '/user\@Becse/i'; $client->prompt($prompt); $client->login('user','pass'); $client->cmd('/log'); my $cmd = 'print without-paging'; my @lines = $client->cmd($cmd); $client->cmd('/'); $client->cmd('quit'); $client->close; foreach (@lines) { print LOG "$_\n"; } close(LOG); return @lines; }
