Cisco check_by_ssh ?

Hi,

I have done some work in this area (5'000 Cisco device config backup in
Perl). Basically, Cisco's ssh implementation is limited, depends on your
IOS version, and cripple any remote execution attempt you may have.

Some stuff I have seen :

- sometimes only ssh V1, so only one command per session
- poor support for keys
- used a TACACS level 15 account so I can "write t" and get the config
without using "enable"
- "show running-config" unwelcome, have to use "write terminal"

In short : be prepared to sweat. If you have any way to use SNMP
instead, go for it without hesitating. Cisco hasn't understood what we
system guys need with their ssh.

The documentation says to setup a secure connection with gpg keys, but since I'm not a Cisco expert, I'm not sure this is even possible if the ssh target is a Cisco router.  Links to how to do this would be greatly appreciated.
