misc

MOXA switches series EDS-405A/408A are nice and rugged devices, I'm using a lot of them at work. You can access them via telnet, but it's an interactive pseudo-graphic interface, you have to enter menus, move with arrows. Not a CLI like for Cisco switches.
Fortunately using the Linux utility "expect" plus knowing the right key codes, you can configure them in batch mode... for example you can batch change their network parameters using this script for changing the IP address of MOXA EDS-405A/408A switches via telnet.
Good luck!

I decided to open a new section on the website called Misc, that means "miscellaneous"... that means "everything and nothing".
I think I'll post there some scripts, instructions, or stuff like that.

For the moment there's one little script I'm using for changing the IP address of Cisco switches via telnet (in my case Cisco ME3400) with only one line and without the need to interactively login.
In the future, who knows? :)

See you!
