[rancid] RANCID with Nortel

[Stephane Malo]

Now that i`ve got RANCID working with my CISCO i am now faced with NORTEL
(which i have no experience at all)

Tried blogin and it did not work.
Got further with clogin but problem seems that there is no command line
interface for (CLI) BayStack 450-24T.
Got the 1st menu asking for CTRL-Y

Enter Ctrl-Y to begin.


Then other menu asking for password
BayStack 450-24T HW:RevL  FW:V1.47 SW:v3.1.0.22  ISVN:1

                       Switch Password: [ *************** ]

                      Enter Password: ********



then got final menu, which you can navigatre with up/down arrows

         BayStack 450-24T Main Menu


                        IP Configuration/Setup...
                        SNMP Configuration...

                        Configuration File...
                        Display Event Log
                        Save Current Settings
                        Reset
                        Reset to Default Settings
                        Logout

Use arrow keys to highlight option, press <Return> or <Enter> to select
option.

Question is, how can RANSID query these systems?
Did anybody ever do a c or blogin file to take into account these menus or
is there a way to log into the BayStacks with CLI that RANCID can use.
