[rancid] HP 1920

[Viktor Steinmann]

Hey all

I'd like to take up the discussion from June 2015 about HP 1920 switches.

http://www.shrubbery.net/pipermail/rancid-discuss/2015-June/008557.html

I have purchased some of these switches as well, and in fact the Web
interface and the CLI suck. But you can get to a full CLI with some
extra commands:

a) Enter "_cmdline-mode on"
b) The switch answers with "All commands can be displayed and executed.
Continue? [Y/N]" on which you answer with "Y"
c) The switch will answer with the password prompt: "Please input password:"
d) The password to enter here is "Jinhua1920unauthorized"
e) The switch will output this: "Warning: Now you enter an all-command
mode for developer's testing, some commands may affect operation by
wrong use, please carefully use it with our engineer's direction."
f) Now you enter "system-view", which gives you the "enable" mode on
this switch-type

Now you have full access to the CLI, which is very much standard (e.g.
with "display current-configuration" you'll get the full configuration).

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
Viktor

That's a new one. It used to be "512900" on the 1910s (at least).

I haven't had any time to review my hacks to get this handled by Rancid 3
I'm afraid :( .

this sounds ugly. someone would have to provide me access to one in order for
me to help with adding support - if its reasonable once in "full cli" mode.

It is indeed ugly. I already have the switches in production, so I can't
give access, unfortunately.

Sorry.
