Change Prompt Example

The following is an example for changing a prompt.

As an example, consider a network where the prompt has been changed to LABNET on some of the Cisco Routers. Shown below is the default Device Class Prompts file for Cisco IOS Routers.

<Prompts Version="1.0">
  <CiscoIOSRouter>
    <EnablePromptState>
      <ID>1001</ID>
      <Expr><![CDATA[[-A-Za-z0-9_!@$%^&+|~]+# *$]]></Expr>
    </EnablePromptState>
 
    <DisablePromptState>
      <ID>1002</ID>
      <Expr><![CDATA[> *$]]></Expr>
    </DisablePromptState>
     <ConfigPromptState>
      <ID>1003</ID>
      <Expr><![CDATA[[\(].*[\)] *# *$]]></Expr>
    </ConfigPromptState>
    <LoginPromptState>
      <ID>1004</ID>
      <Expr><![CDATA[ogin:|sername ?:|[Ii][Dd]:]]></Expr>
    </LoginPromptState>
    <PasswordPromptState>
      <ID>1005</ID>
<ciscoInvalidInputState>
      <ID>10003</ID>
      <Expr><![CDATA[Invalid input|^%|[Dd]uplicate|Bad mask]]></Expr>
    </ciscoInvalidInputState>
    <ciscoBannerPromptState>
      <ID>10007</ID>
      <Expr><![CDATA[Enter TEXT message.]]></Expr>
    </ciscoBannerPromptState>
    <ciscoMenuPromptState>
      <ID>10010</ID>
      <Expr><![CDATA[User Interface Menu]]></Expr>
    </ciscoMenuPromptState>
  </CiscoIOSRouter>
</Prompts>

To add LABNET as a valid prompt the <Expr> element of both the EnablePromptState and DisablePromptState elements in the file package/pkgxml/CiscoIOSRouter/CiscoIOSRouterPrompts.xml, (relative to the Network Configuration Manager installation directory) must be modified toinclude LABNET

The elements should be changed to the following:

<Expr><![CDATA[[-A-Za-z0-9_!@$%^&+|~]+# *$|LABNET]]></Expr>

and

<Expr><![CDATA[> *$|LABNET]]></Expr>
