Hi All,=20

I have an XMLRPC server/API that I implemented (written in perl) to =
manage most of the cisco kit on the network, with most of the "worker" =
methods using Net::Telnet::Cisco.  Our new datacenter, however, has =
Cisco Nexus equipment which totally breaks the API since =
Net::Telnet::Cisco doesn't work at all with NX-OS.  I've done some =
scouring around to try to find something useful for NX-OS, but have come =
up with nil...=20

Don't suppose anyone has any pointers or has heard of a similar lib for =
perl to be able to manage NX-OS based systems?  I've tried to find a =
netconf-xmlrpc-ssh lib, but everything that I've found is specifically =
geared towards juniper rather than Cisco -- and while netconf is =
supposed to be "standard" (more or less), there are significant =
differences between the two implementations sufficient enough to make =
the libs that I've found incompatible with NX-OS.

Anyone happen to have any ideas ?


Many thanks,=20


Leland
