Description

The lccTerminal program was created to create automated or manual connections to devices that support SSH (secure shell, supports SSH1 and SSH2).

Some benefits of this program would be:

scripted commands that run in a sequential/automated mode
multiple devices supported, i.e. run a set of commands against a group of devices
automatic transmit/response clean-up and parsing out to text files. This is very handy for capturing clean configurations, when used in combination with 'lcc:recordDisplayLocation', can automatically create files by device id name.
small footprint connection for manual or batch running
can be used to manually connection/type commands, or pre-scripted commands

The program accepts its settings from either the command line parameters, a logic file, and/or both.

When accessing a device for manual commands (i.e. typing after connected), a stored User Id/User Password is not supported.

Sensitive fields, like User Id, User Password and Commands are supplied in an encrypted format. See the Encrypting Values section.

This program has been tested with connections to Cisco, HP and Juniper devices.
