[rancid] Brocade VDX

Post by Andrew Meyer
I have 4 Brocade VDX 6740 switches that I am trying to add to RANCiD. Has anyone gotten these to work? I'm trying to write documentation so I can repeat this in the future.
This is what I have found so far. But I'm running this on FreeBSD 11.1. I'm ok if I need to patch it. Just loooking for the right way to add this to the system or patch it.

you havent told us what version of rancid. are you trying to add some
other script because type foundry doesnt work for the device? this
page is accurate and/or see section 4 of the rancid FAQ

I have VDX switches working.

I use brcdvcs type

2 6940 and 2 6740 in a stack

rancid.types.conf:

# Brocade VCS 10g/40g
brcdvcs;script;rancid -t brcdvcs
brcdvcs;login;a10login
brcdvcs;module;brocade
brcdvcs;inloop;brocade::inloop
brcdvcs;command;brocade::ShowVersion;show version all-partitions
brcdvcs;command;brocade::ShowLicense;show license
brcdvcs;command;brocade::ShowRasLicense;show logging raslog rbridge-id 11
brcdvcs;command;brocade::ShowRasLicense;show logging raslog rbridge-id 12
brcdvcs;command;brocade::ShowVcs;show vcs detail
brcdvcs;command;brocade::ShowVlan;show vlan brief
brcdvcs;command;brocade::ShowSnapshots;show config snapshot rbridge-id 1
brcdvcs;command;brocade::ShowFabric;show virtual-fabric status
brcdvcs;command;brocade::ShowFabric;show fabric all
brcdvcs;command;brocade::ShowSupport;show support
brcdvcs;command;brocade::ShowMonitor;show system monitor
brcdvcs;command;brocade::ShowConfig;show running-config

(you'll want to change your rbridge-ids appropriately)

you havent told us what version of rancid. are you trying to add some
other script because type foundry doesnt work for the device? this

brcdvcs;command;brocade::ShowMonitor;show system monitor
brcdvcs;command;brocade::ShowConfig;show running-config

It'd be great if others who use this would confirm that it works properly
and reliably.
