Script for HP/H3C Switches

Hi!

 

I'm trying to backup the config of our new HP (H3C) Switches (5120, 5800, 10500). The script I created out of the Custom.Template is not working. The prompt of the switches is "<SWITCHNAME>", not "SWITCHNAME>" as in Ciscos IOS. So the script returns the error "Did not receive expected prompt when entering Enable mode".

Has anybody managed to create a script that works with the HP H3C switches?

Configuring Cisco Nexus 7k in Kiwi Cat Tools

I've been able to use Kiwi Cat Tools to backup nearly all of our Cisco devices successfully.  However, our Nexus 7k's do not seem to be working with Cat Tools.  We use radius authentication and ssh to access our 7k's but cat tools seems to stall after the ssh log-in.  I've tried every combination of AAA username and password as well as ssh username and password, but no matter what it just seems to stall at the ssh fingerprint portion of the device backup.  Anyone have any ideas as to what I am doing wrong or have another way to backup the configs for the 7k using Kiwi Cat Tools?

Backup running config for OpenBSD PF Firewall

Hello,

 

I've been trying to get Kiwi Cattools to download the PF config file from an OpenBSD system. I have managed to get Kiwi Cattools to login to the machine via ssh but then it throws this cryptic error to the log:

 

Login results = VTY: Failed, Enable: N/A, HostID: N/A

 

Just hoping someone can guide me in the right direction. The help files say that the debug mode will help troubleshoot the problem. I'm not sure what to look for in the log. This is the output I get when I try the test login command:

On the line that thats out '<C OK', that includes the login banner that the system gives so I know it's getting logged in. After login, the prompt is just a "#" and I also see that on that line twice towards the end. These are the variables I have set in the script file for that device:

 

Private Const DEVICE_STANDARDPROMPT = "#"

Private Const DEVICE_PRIVILEGEDPROMPT = "#"

Private Const DEVICE_CONFIGPROMPT = "#"

 

Is it having trouble picking up on the # prompt?

 

I appreciate any help. Thanks!

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

Backing up F5 BIGIP UCS archive

Does anybody know if there is a way to backup the UCS archive on the BIGIP's, I think the current template in CatTools only backs up the config file. You really need the UCS archive to be able to restore devices properly.

Fortinet Fortigate Backups via TFTP

September 10, 2013, 3:46 am
$

Hi

 

I have managed to get a full back of a Fortigate firewall working using TFTP and I thought I would share how I did it with the community.

 

We have a pair of Fortigates 3600C and we run multiple VDOMs on these, this meant the default script withing Cattools didn't work for us. We also require a keystroke before logging in as well. All this meant I had to use a combination of variations and also the TFTP backup method.

 

Variations configuration

 

  • Add your devices using the "Generic.Device" type, this will allow you to use "Variations"
  • Give them a group name - it is well worth using the same group name for all Fortinets as this will allow you to apply the same variations to all devices within that "Group"
  • Fill in the rest of the device info and passwords as you would do normally
  • Go to the "variations" tab and click "use variations"
  • Go to the "prompts" tab and fill in the information as shown in the "qoutes":-

DEVICE_USERNAMEPROMPT = "login as:"

DEVICE_PASSWORDPROMPT = "password:"

DEVICE_STANDARDPROMPT = "#"

DEVICE_PRIVILEGEDPROMPT = "#"

DEVICE_CONFIGPROMPT = "(global) #"

  • Go to the "additional commands" tab and fill in the information as shown in the "qoutes":-

COMMAND_ENTERCONFIG = "configure global"

COMMAND_EXITCONFIG = "end"

  • Go to the "pre/post login" tab and fill in the information as shown in the "qoutes":-
  • NOTE: you may not need to do this if you aren't asking for a pre login key stroke.

PRE_LOGIN_MESSAGE = "(Press 'a' to accept):"

PRE_LOGIN_KEYSTROKE = "a"

  • Then click on the "group save" button as this will then save the changes to the group you specified. This will allow you to add more devices to this group and it will pre-populate the variations for you. This saves a lot of work in the future.

 

 

TFTP activity configuration

 

  • Go to activities and click add
  • Set Type to "Device.Backup.TFTP"
  • Fill in name and description
  • Set schedule under the time tab
  • Add your devices
  • Go to "Options" tab
  • Untick the "file to write to tftp server"
  • Untick the "enter commands in enable mode"
  • In the "optional alternative list of commands" section input the following:-

%ctUM: Timeout 100

%ctUM: EchoOff

config global

%ctUM: EchoOff

execute backup config tftp %ctDeviceName-Running-Config <input your IP Address>

%ctUM: EchoOff

  • If your not using the default file locations don't forget to change them, I got caught out on this. Mine look like:-

F:\CatTools2\Configs\%GroupName%\Config.Current.Running.%BaseFile%.txt

F:\CatTools2\Configs\Archives\%GroupName%\Config.Dated.Running.%BaseFile%.%DateISO%-%TimeHHMM%.txt

  • Click ok to save

 

Now run the activity to check it all works. What you will find is there is about a 5 minute delay where it shows as a busy task. Be patient as it will finish. I would recommend running this task outside of any other backups as it does take a bit longer than others.

 

Hope this helps others getting this working.

 

EDIT

 

I have updated this to change from using the command "execute backup full-config" to use "execute backup config". This is because we had an issue recently where we were unable to restore the backup taking using the "execute backup full-config" command.

Fortinet recommend using the "execute backup config" command as this just restores the configuration that has been changed.

I have now tested this on our lab device and I was able to restore the configuration successfully.

 

Cheers

 

Jay

Problem with Cisco SG500 Backup

My problem with Backup the config of the Cisco SG500 is, that I got the error message "Did not receive expected prompt after disable command".

The config was saved but I couldn't solve the error.

I think that they try to open the Enable-Mode, but the SG500 haven't.

I config the "Variations" to Backup the devices but I didn't find where I can disable the "Enable-Mode" calling.

Any ideas where my mistake is?

Backup Config of Checkpoint Gateway

December 15, 2015, 2:06 am

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:

  1. login via ssh
  2. "lock database override" //get prev. rights
  3. "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
  4. 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

HP Comware 7 Switches

I have been using CatTools successfully with Cisco and HP Procurve switches for some time now, but I can't get the software to successfully talk to a new Comware switch. Looking at the debug logs it looks like it isn't coping with the default Comware prompt format e.g. <sysname> or [sysname] for user or system view respectively. Any idea what I need to do to get it to work?

 

Thanks

ps I have logged a call with SolarWinds but this is proving to be a soul destroying process. The case is flagged as not started after two days, I've left answer phone messages to no avail and listened to muzak for far too long.

We´re not able to backup the config of those SF-300 switches, it is always ends up with error message "did not received command prompt after connecting via SSH" , probably because it´s not an IOS based switch. Do you have any idea how to backup those dump switches?

I can't figure out why this isn't working:

Scenario:SSH is configured on switch and works via SecureCRT

In Kiwi, SSH username and password is filled in.

Intital login requires username/password is selected.

For the purposes of troubleshooting, I cleared all the Prompts.  I had tried various permutations.

 

Here is the debug file.  Please help me understand what I am doing wrong....
