Rancid currently +supports Bay routers, Cisco routers, Juniper routers, Catalyst switches, +Foundry switches, Redback NASs, ADC EZT3 muxes, MRTd (and thus likely IRRd), +Alteon switches, and HP procurve switches. + +Rancid logs into each of the devices in a router table file, runs various +commands, chomps the output, and emails any differences ( sample) from +the previous collection to a mail list. + +A looking glass is also included with rancid, based on Ed Kern's in use on +http://nitrous.digex.net/. Rancid version has added functions, supports cisco, + juniper, and foundry and uses the login scripts that come with rancid; +so it can use rsh, telnet, or ssh to connect to your router(s). + +WWW: http://www.shrubbery.net/rancid/ |
