[rancid] Re: IFBrief no longer reporting for Cisco gear with 2.3.2a7

[Elliott, Andrew]

John,

Thanks so much for the answer!

I tried to add it myself by adding this line to the commandtable:

{'show ip interface brief'      => "ShowIFBrief"},

And this routine:

sub ShowIFBrief {
    print STDERR "    In ShowIFBrief: $_" if ($debug);

    while (<INPUT>) {
        tr/\015//d;
        last if (/^$prompt/);
        next if (/^(\s*|\s*$cmd\s*)$/);
        return(-1) if (/command authorization failed/i);
        ProcessHistory("COMMENTS","","","!IFBrief: $_");
    }
    ProcessHistory("COMMENTS","","","!\n");
    return(0);
}
