Filter frequently changing ssd file #48

Closed bylienator closed 1 year ago

bylienator commented 2 years ago

On the Cisco Catalyst 9k switches, starting from at least IOS XE v17.3.x, a file named 'ssd' can be found on the (boot)flash filesystem. The filename is an abbreviation for "secure storage disk" and this file is tied to the Guest Shell functionality for providing a virtualized Linux-based environment. However on some of the Catalyst 9k platforms (e.g. Catalyst 9500's) this file changes daily causing an unwanted diff.

Does 05bbf1b0 already address this?

Yes, that patch does the same thing.
