Hello; I 'm using Sarian Hr4410, ER4110, MR2110. Is there anyone who created a device templete file for Sarians. I tried to make it from 3com's file, but i couldn't. Please help. I have to download their config and send them commands.
Hi Keptile--
I did a quick read of the NCM Template area of the content exchange and didn't find anything on Sarian.

Hi,
I did create the Sarian command file attached (you'll need to change the name from .txt to .ConfigMgmt-Commands). There a limits to what you can do. The biggest problem I found (as detailed above) was that if you change the prompt to something meaninful within the configuration, when it downloads the config, it gets to the line within the config where the prompt is specified and then stops because it thinks you are back at the prompt. It misses out capturing all of the username information.
A colleague did mention that there is a different way of showing the configuration using "type config.da0" at the command prompt. Not tried this yet, but I think it will probably suffer from the same thing.
I've spoken with Sarian and there is apparently no way to add a # or other symbol at the end of the prompt to indicate the command line.
I have had some success with devices where a prompt is not specified in the configuration. The default prompt is usually something like "s13392>" which is not contained within the configuration and therefore doesn't stop the configuration from downloading fully. The problem with this is that you don't get a meaningful prompt.
If Orion NCM supports FTP at some point in the fututre, then you should be able to FTP the configurations from the box. I have a couple of devices which are screaming out for FTP config downloads as they don't support TFTP and don't show the configurations via the Telnet terminal console.
Hope this helps,
David Carter.
