ActivePerl Script to make configuration changes to Cisco switches via SSH

Asked by l0stb0y in Perl Programming Language, SSH / Telnet Software, Network Operations

Tags: ActivePerl, Cisco, SSH

I'm looking for guidance on creating an ActivePerl script that can make configuration changes to Cisco switches via SSH. We currently have a working Perl script that uses Telnet for this. From what I've read, the Perl SSH modules can only be used if you run Perl from within Cygwin which we don't want to do. It looks like it can be done if you use Perl to launch Plink, but I have no idea how to accomplish this. We then need Perl to log us into privilege (enable) mode to make the config changes. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
