<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>I’ve
been trying to backup the Cisco ACE but Rancid seems to time out during the
connection. I think it has to do with the pager. On the ACE, every
time I login the pager gets set back to its default. Logging in and then
setting ‘term length 0’ only works for the session. After
Rancid logs out, the pager gets reset.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>Scenario:
I can login to the device using clogin. Issuing a ‘show run’
from there reveals that the pager is set, (noted by the --more-- prompt).
I set ‘term length 0’ and ‘sho run’ completes with no
pager. Logging out and then back in reveals that the pager is once again
set. Using the rancid script with –d, the last output is:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>My
assumption is that somehow Rancid is expecting the enable prompt but not
getting it because of the pager. I looked at the rancid script but I’m
just not proficient enough to know where to hard code a ‘term length 0’
and I definitely don’t want to change the behavior for other devices, (I
don’t want to “mess up”). Does anyone have a piece of
code that will accomplish this?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

possible, if you have it, I would really like to backup all the contexts within
the ACE as well.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
