I have been using PLINK (putty's lesser known sibling) scripts for some of =
our smaller customers to execute information gathering before a project in =
case of "excellent" documentation. I can usually whip up a script in a few=
minutes to get sh ru, sh ver and sh diag from 20 devices. Also been using=
it for a couple of small customers for config backup from webservers, swit=
ches, routers, firewalls and anything else with a telnet/ssh login.

Subject: accessing multiple devices via a script
Hi fellows,
I am supporting a big service provider and sometimes I face this problem.
Sometimes I want to access my customer network and want to extract some ver=
ification output "show commands" from a large number of devices.
What kind of scripting solutions you guys are using this case.
Appreciate the feedback,
Abdullah
