Change Menu Suite

The [Change] Menu collects operations related to modifying the configuration of the selected device.

Command Runner

Command Runner is a useful tool when performing the same operation repeatedly on multiple devices. For example, you can run commands of over 100 lines to many devices at once. Commands that can be performed include downloading and uploading configurations. After entering the required items, click the [Execute] button.

The [Override the default prompt regex] field specifies a regular expression to match a particular type of prompt. The prompts to be matched are like PS1 variables in shell scripts. This field required if a command responds with an unusual prompt.

For example, some interactive commands may prompt for the next input with a simpler < instead of the usual <username># prompt. In these cases, you must specify using the regular expression ^< (at the beginning of the line). Otherwise, it will be impossible to distinguish between the output result of the command and the prompt.
