Net::Telnet Description

Net::Telnet can interact with TELNET port or other TCP ports. Net::Telnet can interact with TELNET port or other TCP ports.SYNOPSISuse Net::Telnet ();see METHODS section belowNet::Telnet allows you to make client connections to a TCP port and do network I/O, especially to a port using the TELNET protocol. Simple I/O methods such as print, get, and getline are provided. More sophisticated interactive features are provided because connecting to a TELNET port ultimately means communicating with a program designed for human interaction. These interactive features include the ability to specify a time-out and to wait for patterns to appear in the input stream, such as the prompt from a shell.Other reasons to use this module than strictly with a TELNET port are:You're not familiar with sockets and you want a simple way to make client connections to TCP services.You want to be able to specify your own time-out while connecting, reading, or writing.You're communicating with an interactive program at the other end of some socket or pipe and you want to wait for certain patterns to appear.Here's an example that prints who's logged-on to the remote host sparky. In addition to a username and password, you must also know the user's shell prompt, which for this example is bash$ use Net::Telnet (); $t = new Net::Telnet (Timeout => 10, Prompt => '/bash$ $/'); $t->open("sparky"); $t->login($username, $passwd); @lines = $t->cmd("who"); print @lines; Requirements: · Perl
