hp procurve telnet support #332

Closed spikedrba closed 8 years ago

spikedrba commented 8 years ago

Hi,

wonderful work, thank you so much for this lib. I have a bunch of procurve switches and I noticed support for them has been recently added + telnet support was added in 1.0, however the combination of the two is not supported. Is that correct or am I just failing at getting it to work?

If that's the case and somebody was willing to provide some pointers, I'd be happy to take a stab at providing a patch, altho I'm a complete noob at python dev.

thanks,

Spike

@spikedrba Yes, there is HP ProCurve support for SSH and their is telnet support currently only for Cisco IOS.

Basically, we would need to write a telnet driver for HP ProCurve.

If I do this, can you test it?

spikedrba commented 7 years ago

@ktbyers totally yeah, I have 3 diff kinds of HPs deployed (15 total) and would love to automate their setup and maintenance with netmiko (and then wrap that into ansible with ntc-ansible).

Hi,

Great work with Netmiko! Is there any progress in the development of the telnet driver for HP ProCurve?

Cheers!

No, no one ever worked on this (including me). If you are interested in working on it, please submit a PR, there should be relatively recent examples of people adding telnet support for other platforms.
