Does anybody know of a way that you can add devices to Kiwi from the command line? I want to write a windows shell script to automate adding devices.
Thanks

Unable to run an ARP report against a Cisco Nexus with KIWI CatTools 3.6.0
When trying to run an ARP table report against the Nexus platform, the report fails. The Info Log shows "Unable to find the title line in router ARP table" and then follows with the line "No ARP data available."
Any ideas on how to work around this? The output from other Cisco equipment was in the format of the following:
#show arp
ARP Aging time = 1200 sec
+ - Permanent Arp Entries
* - Static Arp Entries
default at 00-00-00-00-00-00 on vlan 0

On the NEXUS, it looks like this:

Error while unpacking program, code LP5. Please report to author.
Kiwi Cattools is stopping after trying to execute it. Error windows pops up with message: "Error while unpacking program, code LP5. Please report to author."
Tried to unistall and reinstall the product (Kiwi CatTools 3.4.0) without success. CatTools has been running since years without any problems, until now. Probably some other recently (automatic) installed application or service is the cause, but I am not able to identify; I have installed nothing new for the last weeks.
Any help or advise is appreciated... thanks

Report version table script cant login to device when many devices selected
Hello Guys,
I created 2 Activities that are identical to each other, they run the Report Version Table script.
Activity A has 6 devices selected and Activity B has 120 devices selected.
When i run Activity B a few of the devices fail with the following error:
Failed to connect to 10.10.10.1. Reason: (30016) Invalid username or password reported by server, or bad private key.. Giving up after 3 connection attempts.
So i created activity A with the 6 devices that fail and when i run that all 6 of them work.
Both scripts can use Maximum available threads.
I set the log level to debug and above and checked the info log file.

Cisco IronPort C170 AsyncOS 9.1.0 config backup
Hi there,
we have a problem with this setup ->
<NEWSESSION CatTools 3.10.0 23.10.2015 15:41:59>
<PROTOCOL=SSH2>
<DEVICE TYPE=IronPort.Security.General>
<ACTIVITY TYPE=Device.Backup.Running Config>
This is what gets backed up ->
Choose the password option:
1. Mask passwords (Files with masked passwords cannot be loaded using
loadconfig command)
2. Encrypt passwords
3. Plain passwords
[1
Now my question. How can I get the tools to choose option 2 and include the output in my backup?

Backup Config of Checkpoint Gateway
Hi Thwack community,
this is my first discussion
We are having some troubles with "Checkpoint Security Gateway" Devices. Because there is no suitable Device-Template for those devices i used the Generic.Device combined with a Device Variation to backup the Running Configuration.
Device Details: Check Point Security Gateway using Gaia R77.20 as OS, Kiwi Cattools 3.6.0
I always try to copy the manual steps i would do via putty/SSH to cattools. Those manual steps would be:
- login via ssh
- "lock database override" //get prev. rights
- "show configuration" //running config gets printed to stdout with paging (-- More --) -> as fas as i know there is no ter len 0/ no paging command
- quit or exit
Somehow cattools is having some problems with those steps :/
It isn´t getting input from the "show configuration" command which should print to stdout "Did not receive echo of show configuration command".
I attached you the log-info File and the Device variations so you could get a look into the changes i made.
Has anyone ever had similar problems (and a solution to it)? Especially with Checkpoint Devices?
Best regards,
Max

Backing up Alcatel OmniSwitch with CatTools
HI guys,
I have been trying to backup up my OmniSwitches (6850 p48 variants) with CatTools.
The built in device is for omnistacks which doesn't work (Omniswitches don't have an enable mode) so I started to write my own template.
I can get CatTools to log in and dump the config, however only half the config is dumped.
Initially it appeared it was because CatTools was seeing the session prompt command in the config and flushed everything after it because of bCleanBuffer option in the SendCommandSingle() function.
I changed the GetConfig() function so that it when it calls the SendCommandSingle() function it is passing false to the bCleanBuffer to try and stop the above, however this only gave me a few extra lines of the config and it is still missing most of the config.
Now I am pretty much stuck!
Any pointers as to why this might be happening?
Edit: Ok, setting the bCleanBuffer helps (stops it clearing everything after the session prompt) but another part of the function s seeing it and then runs the exit command which is why I get a few more lines. Investigation

Backup APC SmartUPS Network Management Card Config
Hi!
Is there a chance that CatTools could retrieve the config.ini of a APC SmartUPS AP9617/AP9630 Network Management Card using FTP? It would be great if someone of the development team could have a look at it.
Here's a "capture" of a FTP session:
ftp> open 10.0.0.1
Connected to 10.0.0.1.
220 AP9617 Network Management Card AOS v3.7.3 FTP server ready.
User (10.0.0.1:(none)): admin
331 User name okay, need password.
Password:
230 User logged in, proceed.
ftp> bin
200 TYPE Command okay.
ftp> hash
Hash mark printing On ftp: (2048 bytes/hash mark) .
ftp> get config.ini
200 PORT Command okay.
150 File status okay; about to open data connection.
#######################226 Closing data connection.
ftp: 47311 bytes received in 15,25Seconds 3,10Kbytes/sec.
ftp> close

Capture Serial Number from Cisco Router
We have 50 remote offices with Cisco 1801's. I have the exciting job of establishing their serial numbers :-/
Can kiwi help. I guess the output I'm after comes from the 'show inventory' command. Or is there a MIB which can be installed into Orion which can be run to do the same job. The information i'm specifically after is serial number.

How can I configure Cat Tools to connect to Dell SSH?
I am attempting to configure Cat Tools to backup some of our Dell PowerConnect 5548s running-configs over SSH, however I am running into problems when initiating the SSH session. Since the Dell SSH on the appliance is built on top of Telnet, it prompts for a useless field "Login as:" before asking for the local username and password. This first field has no effect on whether or not you can authenticate to the device.
I cannot find a way to put in a carriage return or line-feed command to make the session continue to the "Username: " prompt.
I apologize for my sentence structure on this post.
Cheers,
Stefan

Backup Extreme Summit switches using TFTP commands
Hi, We have just installed some extreme switches and currently
it is backing up using model X450-24X running the show configuration command.
We are wanting to run the following below command and wondered whether this
would be possible if we had a variations file and running a TFTP server on
server where cat tools is installed.
tftp put x.x.x.x vr "VR-Default"primary.cfg **Saved file name***.cfg
The above command makes it easier to restore configs if we were to have issues.
We tried running Device.Backup.TFTP activity but it currently only supports Cisco Devices.
Thanks
