[rancid] Re: f5 bigIP part 2

Tue Feb 3 21:50:42 UTC 2009

Hrm, I already hardcoded clogin to provide vt100, just like the other
poster in the URL I provided.  And I've confirmed that it works via a
bin/clogin bigip01.

$ bin/clogin bigip01

bigip01

spawn ssh -c 3des -x -l admin bigip01

admin at bigip01's password:

Terminal type? [xterm] vt100

Terminal type is vt100.

bigip01:~#

bigip01:~#

For testing, I removed the two ls check commands, and re-ran sh -x
bin/control-rancid.  Still hangs up on the par line.

+ par -q -n 5 -c rancid-fe {}
//usr/home/rancid/var/SSRC_test//routers.up

bigip01: missed cmd(s): bigpipe monitor list all

Any other ideas?

Looks rancid is not setting the term type properly on the F5.

Two options:

If you don't terminate SSL connections on the F5 (Or don't want rancid
to track ssl certificate changes) drop those two ls commands from
f5rancid.

Fix rancid to set the term type on the F5 to vt100.

Using rancid--2.3.2a9 on freebsd 7.1, I can successfully clogin into the
device.

Getting anything off the device via bin/rancid or bin/control-rancid is
another story.  I'm getting timeout errors and I've tried timeouts of
180s and 300s.  Neither of which change the outcome.  I did have to
tweak bin/clogin to fix an issue from this post:
http://www.shrubbery.net/pipermail/rancid-discuss/2007-August/002437.htm
l.

I'm using the defined f5 device type in router.db.  Any ideas?  Below is
a sh -x output from control_rancid on my defined network list.
