Mit dem Snippet können Kommandos auf einer Cisco Shell via SSH ausgeführt werden.

#!/usr/bin/env python

import paramiko
import sys


def send_string_and_wait_for_string(command, wait_string, should_print):
    shell.send(command)
  
    receive_buffer = ""

    while not wait_string in receive_buffer:
        receive_buffer += shell.recv(1024)

    if should_print:
        print receive_buffer

    return receive_buffer

client = paramiko.SSHClient()

client.connect("10.62.62.10", username="testuser", password="testpasswd", look_for_keys=False, allow_agent=False)
