NAME

rancid - Cisco configuration filter

SYNOPSIS

rancid [-dlV] (-f filename | hostname)

DESCRIPTION

rancid is a perl(1) script which uses the login scripts (see clogin(1)) to login to a device, execute commands to display the configuration, etc, then filters the output for formatting, security, and so on. rancid's product is a file with the name of it's last argument plus the suffix .new. For example, hostname.new.

There are complementary scripts for other platforms and/or manufacturers that are supported by rancid(1). Briefly, these are:

The command-line options are as follows:

rancid should interpret the next argument as a filename which contains the output it would normally collect from the device ( hostname) with clogin(1).

CAVEATS

Cisco IOS offers a DHCP server that maintains a text database which can be stored remotely or on local storage. If stored locally, the file changes constantly and causes constant diffs from rancid. If this file's name ('ip dhcp database') matches the regex dhcp_[^[:space:].].txt, it will be filtered.

For Catalyst switches running CatOS, type cat5, the prompt must end with '>'. clogin(1) looks for '>' to determine when a login is successful. For example:

 cat5k>
 cat5k> enable
 Password: 
 cat5k> (enable) 
 

rancid works on Cisco Catalyst 1900 series switches that are running Enterprise Edition software. This software provides a menu at connection time that allows a command line interface to be used by entering 'K' at the prompt.
