Hello,

I worked a bit more on this and have put it properly on github now:

Hi Jethro,

Thanks for writing this module.  It's working for us on a JL675A 6100 switch, and we've tried it on both ArubaOS-CX version PL.10.06.0110 and PL.10.09.1010.

Cheers,
A Galloway

Hello,

I found some time to take a look at this.

Note that this is for ArubaOS-CX, not ArubaOS (which is what Provision on newer products is now referred to as), nor AOS (which is the wireless controller OS: see here https://github.com/miken32/rancid-aruba).

You can find my current effort here: https://gist.github.com/jrbinks/c28691f11238c23432394302a948900b

Looking to get a real-world feedback for it, then can hand it over for inclusion.

It uses the usual clogin as the login script.

You will need something like the following in .cloginrc:

add password routername {PLACEHOLDER-NOTUSED}
add identity routername {~/.ssh/id_rancid}
add user routername rancid
add method routername {ssh}
add noenable routername 1
add cyphertype routername {aes128-ctr}

As far as I can see, you have to have your user in the administrators group.

And in rancid.types.conf you might want something like:

arubaoscx;script;rancid -t arubaoscx
arubaoscx;login;clogin
arubaoscx;module;arubaoscx
arubaoscx;inloop;arubaoscx::inloop
arubaoscx;command;rancid::RunCommand;no page

arubaoscx;command;arubaoscx::CommentOutput;show bgp ipv6 unicast summary
arubaoscx;command;arubaoscx::ShowConfiguration;show running-config

Tested on:

Aruba JL658A 6300M
Aruba JL635A 8325-48Y8C

both version 10.5.  I will upgrade a box to something more recent and re-test soon.  I don't have any of the edge products to test.

Let me know how you get on and if any other commands would be useful.  Also, there are probably more secrets to be hidden, if you run with filtering of passwords and community strings.

Jethro.

Interest here, but not been able to get development time to look at it.
