[rancid] MLNX-OS support

[Shkelzen Rugovac]

Hello,

I would like to know if there is way to make rancid work with Mellanox
Ethernet switches running MLNX-OS eg model SX1016.

I already tried to adapt the following doc:
http://lesser-evil.com/2015/04/wraprancid-and-rancid-3-x/

This is what I used as wrapplugin

my $debug = 0;

my %options = ();
getopts('df:', \%options);
my $file = $options{'f'};
my $fh;
my $host = $ARGV[0];

$debug = $options{'d'};

print STDERR "to host: $host\n" if $debug;

my $ssh = Net::SSH::Perl->new($host, protocol => '2,1', debug => $debug );

print STDERR "made ssh obj\n" if $debug;
$ssh->login("root");

print STDERR "login\n" if $debug;
my ($stdout, $stderr, $exit) = $ssh->cmd("true");
print STDERR "got output\n" if $debug;

# Open the output file.
open($fh, ">", $file) or die "Cannot open output file\n";
print $fh "#RANCID-CONTENT-TYPE: wrapper.mlnx\n#\n";

print $fh $stdout;
print STDERR "wrote output of ". length($stdout)." bytes\n" if $debug;

#######
# End #
#######
close($fh);
print STDERR "done\n" if $debug;

But it only shows this part of the config:

Does anyone have already a workaround for this? Is there any development on
a possible "mlxlogin"?
