(Ruby) SSH to Cisco Switch - Processing "More" Responses

Demonstrates connecting to a Cisco switch, running a command to enable privileged mode, then running a command to get a paged response requiring the SPACE char to be sent to process "--More--".

Chilkat Ruby Downloads

install from rubygems.org

gem install chilkat

or download... Ruby Library for Windows, MacOS, Linux, Alpine Linux

require 'chilkat'

# This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

ssh = Chilkat::CkSsh.new()

success = ssh.Connect("SSH_SERVER_DOMAIN_OR_IP_ADDRESS",22)
if (success != true)
    print ssh.lastErrorText() + "\n";

end

# Authenticate using login/password:
success = ssh.AuthenticatePw("myLogin","myPassword")
if (success != true)
    print ssh.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

# Start a shell session.
channelNum = ssh.QuickShell()
if (channelNum < 0)
    print ssh.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

# If the CISCO switch returns a prompt with ">", then read until we get the prompt.
# (It's not actually required that we do this, but it helps to know that all is OK at this point..)
success = ssh.ChannelReceiveUntilMatch(channelNum,">","utf-8",true)
if (success != true)
    print ssh.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

# Show what we received so far:
print ssh.getReceivedText(channelNum,"utf-8") + "\n";

# Send the "ena" command to enable privileged mode.
# (For the Cisco switch, terminate command with a single CR char.)
success = ssh.ChannelSendString(channelNum,"ena\r","utf-8")
# Assume success for this example to make it shorter..

# Read to the "Password:" prompt.
success = ssh.ChannelReceiveUntilMatch(channelNum,"Password:","utf-8",true)

    print ssh.lastErrorText() + "\n";

# Read until the new prompt..
success = ssh.ChannelReceiveUntilMatch(channelNum,"#","utf-8",true)

    print ssh.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

# Show what we received...
print ssh.getReceivedText(channelNum,"utf-8") + "\n";

# The response will be in multiple pages, each ending with "--More--" and requiring a SPACE bar to be sent
# to get the next page.
success = ssh.ChannelSendString(channelNum,"show running-config\r","utf-8")

# Consume the response until we end with another prompt.
saMatch = Chilkat::CkStringArray.new()
# Change "YOUR_PROMPT" to your actual prompt.  We don't want to check for only "#" because
# it's not specific enough.  The data in the response could contain the "#" char...
