Login scripts
The DSView management software Telnet/SSH applet has a login scripting function that enables
you to automatically log in to a device. A login script is built with a sequence of expect and send
strings, and initial transmission characters that work with them. To use a login script, you must
enable automatic login in a checkbox.
The first Initial character (that is, the first entry in the Initial character column) specifies what is
sent to the device as soon as the Telnet/SSH applet session is established. This is selected from a
list containing the choices: None, CR (carriage return), CR+LF (carriage return and linefeed), ESC
(Escape) and CTRL+P (Control and P).
The first Expect string indicates what the device will send as its first prompt.
The first Send string indicates what the login script will send to the device after it receives the first
Expect string.
