Juniper on-box script : StartShelll - credentials error #908

Open brahmastra2016 opened 5 years ago

brahmastra2016 commented 5 years ago

For on-box pyhton script we just use "dev = dev = Device()" to connect but it throw exception error since start shell module has the user/password as required parameters.

root@Nemo> op test.py

@brahmastra2016 For now start shell takes user credentials to make ssh connection. We need to extend this Class for on-box support (so that user dont need to pass credentials).

User can use subprocess functions to achieve what he intend to do using StartShell.
