 Explanation: Any ***** is to obscure sensitive data, such as passwords etc. Any lines with Checkpoint was for me to debug a hangup. The program does work, but I want to see the output from the device so I can confirm the command worked as expected.

  1 import getpass
  2 import sys
  3 import telnetlib
  4
  5 HOST = "*******************"
  6 # Another way to do this is: user = raw_input("Enter your user name: ")
  7 user = raw_input("User Name: ")
  8 # print "Checkpoint Line 8 Past UserName Input"
  9 # user = "*********"
 10 # Another way to do this is: password = getpass.getpass()
 11 password = getpass.getpass()
 12 # print "Checkpoint Line 12 Past Password Input"
 13 # password = "***********************"
 14
 15 tn = telnetlib.Telnet(HOST)
 16 # print "Checkpoint Line 16 Past Obj Creation and Connection Opening"
 17 tn.read_until("login: ")
 18 # print "CheckPoint Line 18 Past Read Until Login"
 19 tn.write(user + "\n")
 20 # print "Checkpoint Line 20 Past Write Username and CR"
 21 tn.read_until("Password: ")
 22 # print "Checkpoint Line 22 Past Read Until Password"
 23 tn.write(password + "\n")
 24 # print "Checkpoint Line 24 Past Write Password and CR"
 25 tn.read_until("5308> ")
 26 # print "Checkpoint Line 26 Past Read until 5308"
 27 # tn.write("show net lan dhcp reserved_ip setup\n")
 28 tn.write("security firewall ipv4 enable 20\n")
 29 # print tn.read_all()
 30 # print "Checkpoint Line 28 Past Show Reserved IP Info"
 31 tn.read_until("5308> ")
 32 # print "Checkpoint Line 30 Past Read Until 5308"
 33 tn.write(".exit\n")
 34 # print "Checkpoint Line 32 Past Write Exit"
 35
 36 print tn.read_all()
 37 #print "Checkpoint Line 35 End Of Program"
