Defining families
To create a new device family, the administrator can create a customized Expect script by copying,
renaming and modifying one of the default Expect scripts. The administrator should set the file
permissions to allow reading and execution by all users and writing by members of the admin
group. The format of a custom Expect script’s file name should be: talk_customN.exp.
NOTE: New family names that adhere to the talk_<family_name>.exp format are visible to the cli command and
to the DSView 3 software, but they are not visible in the Web Manager. For this reason, administrators need to
create new Expect scripts for new families by using talk_custom1.exp, talk_custom2.exp, or talk_custom3.exp
for the filenames.
SP/device Expect script arguments
With one exception, each of the Expect scripts used to control access to an SP takes exactly two
arguments in the following format:
The exception to the two
-argument format occurs when the action is spconsole. When the second
argument is spconsole, any other number of arguments may follow; all arguments entered after the
spconsole action are collected into a single command to be executed in the target device’s native
command interface.
