    Well, this applies to gigamon and anything else.

    I created a group under ncm for gigamon.

    in the running commands box i put in

    enable

    show running-config

    when you login to a gigamon it is very simular to a cisco device you get a . prompt and you have to enter the word enable in order to use real commands. < no pass required>

    I did not want to go thru creating a huge custom script in order to make this work. Does anyone have any real world examples on how to make this " new feature" work?

    I also had to add some !  into the command box so the enable command would take.

    so after doing the below i got the beginning of an output but it did not complete.

    !

    !

    enable

    !

    show running-config

    so..... what needs to be done here?

    Hey Dick,

     

    Was just working with a customer on this yesterday.

    This feature works EXACTLY like an SSH session would.

    So depending on the device commands you may have to change how things are displayed via terminal.

     

    So in this case, we execute the order you select.

     

    For Cisco you could do something like this:

     

    terminal length 0

    show running-config

     

     

     

    We are having crazy network issues here with the Broadcom move so I am unable to test this but it works on a device manually.

    So it, in theory, should work in NCM Self Certification.

    Gigamon wont except a terminal length of 0 though…

     

    I may have gotten this to work for a gigamon..

     

    Do you have anyone that uses this with WLC’s?

     

    No term length either, and it shows about 4 lines per space bar hit.

     

    Or do you all have the long ssh script someone would use for a WLC?

    Hey Dick - Are you talking about Cisco Wireless Controllers or some other WLC?

    Yes, cisco wireless controllers

    Hey Dick,

     

    According to this link:

     

    https://community.cisco.com/t5/networking-documents/show-the-complete-configuration-without-breaks-pauses-on-cisco/ta-p/3115114

     

    The command would be "config paging disable” on the WLC.

    We don't have any WLC for me to test.

    I’ll try it out. Thanks.  You all should have an appendix at the end of the admin guides which has all these community examples in them.

    Hey Dick,

     

    We can certainly look into that but generally rely on the vendors to properly document their operating system commands since they do not belong to Broadcom.

     

    Let me know if that doesn't work.

     

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    I am getting below error when try to capture config backup through SHH command on custom device family.

    SPC-OCC-11662: This operation is not available for this device. If the

    device supports this operation, a script must be configured on the device family.

    can you please help?
