Has anyone created custom modules to collect configs without having to log in and out of a switch/router as much? Right now, when I have configs getting collected from a switch via SSH, it logs in and out twice for each type of thing I'm collecting. We have it collecting configs and a few other commands the NOC folks asked if it could grab, so there are eight entries every time a collection is done. We also have these devices set up to log all sign ins and outs, so this fills the logs quite a bit every time it is run and makes it difficult to read other activity being logged.The active discovery and collection scripts on these config sources (for example SSH_Interactive_Dynamic) seem very similar so I don't understand why there is a need to have both. Ideally, one script would login, collect the four things I want it to collect, and sign out.I'm looking through the developer documentation a bit now, it's been a long time since I've written any code at this level though so any help would be appreciatedThank you!
