CODE BLOCK: SecureCRT Logon Scripts = Cisco ASA

CODE BLOCK: SecureCRT Logon Scripts = Cisco ASA

Each week I aim to review a block of code, make improvements and present it to you here.

This week I’m reviewing my own SecureCRT Logon Script for Cisco ASA.

Please refer to my main article for information on these Logon scripts, such as installation, usage, and downloads:

Guide to Setting Up SecureCRT Logon Scripts-Here Are Mine! – 1System

I’ve refined these scripts over some time, and actually removed some code to clean these up and make them more readable.

Below are my Cisco ASA scripts, with the stock standard connect scripts (for direct access to the standalone device or context), and a separate set for access to the “System Context”, which bounces through the “Admin” context using “changeto context” commands.

Summary of the My Scripts!

I have 3 scripts for each type of device I connect to.

  • Script 1: “Connect” – Session connects, runs basic status information, and presents the logon prompt
  • Script 2: “Backup” – cfg_backup – Session connects, runs basic status information, completes backup, collect routing, logoff
  • Script 3: “Custom” – save_cmds – Session connects, runs basic status information=>Run pre-configured command blocks-Backup, show tech, server operational status, etc=>Logoff
The first set is for Direct Access.
The second set is for the System Context Access.
 
See them all below!
