Hi fooler,
Thanks for the reply.
I've tried what you have mentioned below but unfortunately, the device that
i'm connecting to doesn't support remote command execution using ssh.
Its an appliance device and there's only limited ssh configurations that I
can adjust.
I manage to find a solution to my problem using the script below, I just
thought I share it so that others can use it
#!/usr/local/bin/expect -f
spawn /usr/local/bin/ssh u...@remote-machine
expect {
-re "->" {send "<command-here>\r"}'
}
expect {
-re "--- more --- " {send " ";exp_continue}
-re "-- more -- " {send " ";exp_continue}
-re "-- More -- " {send " ";exp_continue}
-re "->" {send "exit\r"}
}
expect {
-re "->" {send "exit\r"}
}
