av2010

I am trying to download configuration from a Vyatta based device. I am able to communicate with the device and get snmp information but download config fails with login failed: bad password message. I know that the passowrd is good as you can see from the session trace file.

I can confirm I solved my own problem, with some assistance from Tech Support. There is a Vyatta bug (with Solarwinds SCP server) that means the config upload process is a little convoluted...

Please ignore the post. I found the problem. System was expecting # for enable mode while the router had a $ symbol. I added the following line to the device template and it started working.

<Command Name="EnableIdentifier" Value="$

"/>

Thanks

If you have a working device template file, could you share it please?

I'm trying to do the same thing but am hitting a wall with the template

For some reason, it fails to be detected/loaded by NCM, giving an "unable to locate or error loading...." message.

The file is called.. "Unknown-1.3.6.1.4.1.30803.ConfigMgmt-Commands"

<Configuration-Management Device="Unknown" SystemOID=" 1.3.6.1.4.1.30803">
    <Commands>
        <Command Name="EnableIdentifier" Value="$"/>
        <Command Name="Reboot" Value="reboot${CRLF}yes"/>
        <Command Name="EnterConfigMode" Value="configure"/>
        <Command Name="ExitConfigMode" Value="commit${CRLF}save${CRLF}exit"/>
        <Command Name="SaveConfig" Value="save"/>
        <Command Name="DownloadConfig" Value="show configuration"/>
