config backup failing on HP switch

$
0
0

We are running CaTTools 3.11 for backing up several of our Cisco switches and it is working great.  However, we also have a bunch of HP switches that we are also trying to use CaTTools with but I'm having trouble getting it working...

Started trying on a HP J9827a switch with 4 cards in it.

 

I've messed around with the different HP switch options including "other" and the variations...

From the debug log it looks to me like its dumping all the commands early not waiting for the prompts.  How do I make it wait for the appropriate parts? 

we dont have logins setup and that is all unchecked in the setup...

What am I missing? (debug below)

How to restore config on Avaya Switches ?

Hi,

 

I'm currently testing to restore the config that I saved using Kiwi Cat Tools. I add a task "Device.TFTP.Upload.Config" to restore the configuration but I'm getting the message "Device type : Nortel.Switch.Ethernet has not yet had this functionnality added". Then how can I restore the configuration if the functionnality is not added for those switches.

 

Thank you very much.

Support for IOS XE? config is failing to be captured

$
0
0

I just got the product installed and my first device configured but its failing to capture the configuration (it's an ASR running IOS-XE).

 

I have 1 activity configured: Device.Backup.Running Config

For the device, I configured the type as Cisco.Router.noenable. I initially tried Cisco.Router.General but it kept complaining about "Enable password prompt returned" which would be incorrect since there is no enable option on this router.  I don't get that error with Cisco.Router.noenable but it fails to capture the configuration.

 

The config file shows this:

 

 

show config
                     ^
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

This is odd because I can issue the command manually and it works.  Seems like there are some unprinted character after "config", given that a typical "invalid input" marker is spaced appropriately to point to the first invalid input character and there are 20 spaces before the ^ in the output.

 

 

 

The activity log show this when using noenable :

When editing the device, I can click on the Telnet/SSH button and successfully log into the device and issue a show config.  Any ideas why this is failing.

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.

How can I configure Cat Tools to connect to Dell SSH?

$
0
0

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


Need custom prompt for Cisco Wireless Lan Controller WLC2100

First prompt is the following:

login as: admin

 

Then the next prompt is the following:

User:admin
Password:

Normally there is no "Login as:" prompt
They drop you straight to a User: prompt.

 

Also uses SSH2 for the connection.

Cattools Freeware is unable to connect to SMTP server

Hi,

I'm currently evaluating Kiwi Cattools using the freeware edition.

I want to test SMTP email alert so I configured my SMTP server/port and email address.

However, if I try to send a test email, it tells me

"Mail error: Unable to connect to XXXXX:"

On the same PC, I can send an email through SMTP with Outlook. Even if I monitor the network traffic, I can't see anything happening on port 25.

What should I check? Is the freeware edition supposed to be able to send SMTP email?

Thanks a lot!

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?

CatTools Connect problem with HP2920

I have downloaded CatTool trial and want to connect to a HP2920 using SSH. After adding the device, i added a simple Report.Port info table Activity.

Now when i execute the Activity with capture mode enabled, i get an error "Did not receive command prompt after connecting via SSH".

If i connect to the Switch using putty, i get a "Press any Key to continue" after the log-in.  So i assume that CatTool gets stuck there.

How can i either tell CatTool to send a key at that stage or disable that on the switch ?

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

WS5100 Login Issue

$
0
0

The Motorola (Symbol?) WS5100 wireless LAN controller has a Cisco CLI style interface - except for the login. On an initial SSH connection the prompt is "login as:" and the correct input is "cli" sans quotes. Then the traditional username and password prompts occur. I can't figure out a way to make Cattools input that first "cli" in the first prompt - it always tries to use the ssh credentials. I've used variations and set the pre-login stuff but with no success. Now I'm trying to do a custom device but I can't see anywhere to put a prelogin command to accommodate. Have any of you had any experience with this and can lend some ideas on how to proceed?

 

TIA,

 

Eric

SonicWALL Configuration Backup is plain text file (was expecting .exp)

$
0
0

We're trying out CatTools as a centralized config management solution for a few hundred SonicWALL appliances, and have run into a bit of a problem.

 

We can add devices to CatTools, and run the Device.Backup.Running Config activity against them, but the file that the activity creates isn't in the format I thought it would be. Our techs will be expecting an encoded .exp file in the event they need to restore a config, not a plaintext file. Are there custom scripts/activities required to back up a config this way? I feel like the answer is probably "yes", but I haven't yet located an example.

 

Can anyone point me in the right direction for getting this to work?

Dear Sir 


 


I am new to KIWIcat tool, first time I have installed this tool to integarate with cisco asa for backup purpose. We manage around 100 cisco asa firewall and used to take manual backup. So we want to convert this process automatically with the help of kiwicat tool. However I am getting error message while take backup through tool which is listed below.


 


Reason (30012) Protocol version mismatch error.. Giving up after 3 connection attempts"


 


 


 


Could you please let me know if I have wrongly configured this or having this error due to any other reason.


 


Version of tool is 3.6.0 which I believe is latest one.


 


Please let me know if you require any other information to dig out the problem.


 


Thanks in advance
