Command Script Variables Based On Device Name

swack

I am trying to execute a mass config change for hundreds of routers that would look something like this:

Each device has a hostname of str##### where ##### is a 5-digit number.

• UploadConfigIndirect
  • filename = ##### where ##### is a 5-digit number corresponding to the target device

I know that the Cisco IOS command template looks like this:

<Command Name="UploadConfigIndirect" Value="copy ${TransferProtocol}://${StorageAddress}/${StorageFilename} ${ConfigType}${CRLF}${CRLF}"/>

 

I have already created the hundreds of individual .txt files that each contain the code that I need to put on the individual routers.  I just want to setup a command script that will either use the "UploadConfigIndirect" or simply do the following:

• copy tftp://[ip address]/#####.txt run (where ##### is the 5-digit number defining the router)

Thanks in advance for your ideas!

Sorry, scratch that.   I just realized that you're trying to write a command script.  It will need to be something like this:

copy tftp://[ip address of tftp server]/${NodeCaption}.txt run

NOTE:  If you want to run the scripts in parallel (MUST FASTER), you should run it from a job.   If you run it manually (right-click tree > execute script), it will be executed serially.
