[PATCH] Add support for the Cisco WLC

Hello guys,

I hoped that somebody would beat me to add the Cisco WLC upstream...
Though there was a lot of interest in testing such a patch so here it
is. Especially testing on versions 4.x is needed as I could test it
only on 5.2.x and 6.0.x.

The attached patch is heavily based on the scripts posted by Ryan West
here on rancid-discuss
(http://www.shrubbery.net/pipermail/rancid-discuss/2010-February/004652.html).

The patch applies on top of 2.3.3 and the license of the portions done
by me is as always "whatever it takes to get the patch accepted upstream".

My modifications:
-----------------
- Rename ciscowlc5 to wlcrancid.
- Rename wlogin to wlclogin.
- Merge support for version 4.x into wlcrancid (*untested*).
- Add -V command line arg to wlclogin/wlcrancid.
- Remove the "!--WLC Begin Config Data--" markers.
- Cleanups in wlcrancid (indentation, whitespace).
- Added the needed configure/Makefile changes.

Todo:
-----
I might work on this items, when I get the time for it is a totally
different story.
- Add man pages for wlclogin/wlcrancid
- From the parsed info generate the headers (comments) that rancid adds,
e.g.:
+ !Chassis type:
+ !Processor ID:
+ !Image: Software:
- Get rid of the "!WLC Show Udi Start" and "!WLC Show Sysinfo Start"
markers too.

bye

It's much cleaner with this version, but it's still failing on the pager or an expect loop. I would move over to version 6 assurewave but I think I would hit some of the bugs, so I'm holding on to 4.2.207 for a bit longer.

Here is what's happening:

rancid [at] netma:~/bin$ rancid-run -V
rancid 2.3.3
rancid [at] netma:~/bin$ expect -v
expect version 5.43.0 - debian Lenny 5.43.0-17 build

rancid [at] netma:~/bin$ wlclogin -c 'show run-config commands' cisco-wlc4
cisco-wlc4
spawn ssh -c 3des -x -l adminuser1234 cisco-wlc4

When the 'show run-config commands' is run from CLI, I am able to page properly through the file. Can anyone shed any light on what might be causing what appears to be an expect loop?

the pager is waiting.

thanks for the detailed report; it made it easy to figure out what goes
wrong. The 4.x versions seem to use this pager prompt too:
Press Enter to continue Or<Ctl Z> to abort

The fix was easy aka accept both "or" and "Or" and don't send a
CTRL-Z but an ENTER. It still worked just fine on my 6.0.x boxes but the
5.2.x box begged to differ... There is one place in the "show
running-config" where the pager "--More-- or (q)uit" clobbers a previous
line.

Can you please give the attached patch a whirl? It applies on top of my
previous patch. I have added also an unrelated change for wlcrancid
where the "External Temperature" is filtered out too.

thanks

I worked through the pager issues earlier as well, I used ^.*--More--.* to match on the unclean line. The problem still exists though, the output from 'show run-config commands' is very detailed and will change a lot over time. Some logic would need to be added to determine the major code version before issuing the commandtable.

Here's some output:

Radio Type..................................... RADIO_TYPE_80211b/g
Noise Information
Noise Profile................................ PASSED
Channel 1.................................... -103 dBm
Channel 2.................................... -98 dBm
Channel 3.................................... -93 dBm

Channel 6.................................... -102 dBm
Channel 7.................................... -99 dBm
Channel 8.................................... -95 dBm
Channel 9.................................... -94 dBm
Channel 10................................... -102 dBm
Channel 11................................... -101 dBm

The problem still exists though, the output from 'show run-config commands' is very detailed and will change a lot over time. Some logic would need to be added to determine the major code version before issuing the commandtable.

you want to turn off the pager if at all possible. if 4.x cant do it but
could be upgraded, i'd just ignore 4.x - its that much of a pita.
