Re^4: Net::Telnet timed out when logging in

Try something like this below. Since you know what the prompt is when logging in manually, use it during creation of the object.

use Net::Telnet;
 
my $telnet3;
$telnet3 = new Net::Telnet(timeout => 10,
                Errmode => 'die'
                Prompt => '/ENTER USERNAME </');
 
$telnet3->open('10.200.16.58'); 
$telnet3->login('IATEST', 'TESTBED');
@lines = $telnet3->cmd("who");
 
 
open(FILE, ">file.txt");
 
    print FILE ("@lines\n");

print("logged in to the device.\n");

Try just the "<"... that's the last thing on the prompt line. If that doesn't solve the issue then you will need to analyze the dump_log files and see where it's timing out. `use Net::Telnet; my $telnet3; $telnet3 = new Net::Telnet(timeout => 10, Errmode => 'die' Prompt => '/</'); $telnet3->open('10.200.16.58'); $telnet3->login('IATEST', 'TESTBED'); @lines = $telnet3->cmd("who");` [download] regexes	[reply] [d/l]

Hi, You need to read the Net::Telnet documentation, and do, at least, a small configuration of the module. `$telnet = new Net::Telnet(timeout => 10, # do not you the 'return' Errmode => 'die', # change the prompt Prompt => '/ </$'); # I'm gue +ssing this prompt ' <' $telnet->input_log($log_file); $telnet->dump_log($dump_file); $telnet->waitfor( -match => qr{ENTER USERNAME} ); $telnet->print($username); $telnet->waitfor( -match => qr{ENTER PASSWORD} ); $telnet->print($passard); # # and finally send a command @lines = $t->cmd("who"); for (@lines) { print }` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
