What kind of cisco device is this? NetDB relies on the standard Net::Telnet::Cisco module, which doesn’t seem to support this type of login. You might have to write a custom Net::Telnet handler to login to this device to get your $session variable instead of relying on this module.
Unfortunately it’s not a quick fix since it seems to be a problem with the underlying library and whatever device this is. I assume SSH is not an option here?
Sorry to raise an existing issue again but I couln't find a solution in the post.
I'm also having trouble getting NetDB to connect to Cisco switches that have "User name" displayed at the login prompt (Telnet).
Devices that display "Username" are working perfectly.
Issue was also raised here: https://sourceforge.net/p/netdbtracking/discussion/939989/thread/a4b610e4/
Is there any way I can change NetDB to work with both?
Thanks
