Custom Scripts and Diagnostics

Release Notes

Commands that utilize a device 'state' can fail

The Alcatel devices have multiple command 'states' which can use different prompts than the standard enable prompt and config prompt. Use of commands that leave the device in another state [such as "system" or "router"] are not supported in the execution of scripts. It is suggested that one use the full multi-command line to not end up in this state, e.g. "system location 'test'".

Setting MOTD (Message of the Day)

The driver supports multi-line custom scripts for setting MOTD options on the Bigband device. However, these scripts fail when used with SSH. Be sure to select Telnet as the connection protocol when setting MOTD options.

Config deployment is a merge operation

The Alcatel 7450/7750 do not support config deployment as such, but do support execution of script files. Config deployment is implemented as an exec of the configuration block provided, and acts as a merge than a copy operation.
