Cisco Catalyst 2960 Series User Manual

This Tcl command extension will block waiting for the end of line to show up in the contents read.Note
cli_read_pattern
Reads the command output from the specified command-line interface (CLI) channel handler until the pattern
that is to be matched occurs in the contents read. Returns all the contents read up to the match.
The pattern matching logic attempts a match by looking at the command output data as it is delivered from
the Cisco IOS command. The match is always done on the most recent 256 characters in the output buffer
unless there are fewer characters available, in which case the match is done on fewer characters. If more
than 256 characters in the output buffer are required for the match to succeed, the pattern will not match.
