I want to connect to a cisco switch via telnet in c#.I want to send commands in cmd with c# and when it asks for password I want to enter it with my program. But my problem is that I can’t send password when it is connected to telnet.And when I used StreamWriter it throws an exception.
Here is my code:
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
string data = "";
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(@"C:\Windows\System32");
StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(@"C:\Windows\System32");
IPAddress address = IPAddress.Parse("172.16.0.110");
IPEndPoint ipe = new IPEndPoint(address, 23);
Socket telnetSocket = new Socket(AddressFamily.InterNetwork,SocketType.Stream, ProtocolType.Tcp);
telnetSocket.Connect(ipe);
NetworkStream NsStream = new NetworkStream(telnetSocket, true);
if (telnetSocket.Connected)
{
NsStream = new NetworkStream(telnetSocket, true);
reader = new StreamReader(NsStream);
}
while (!reader.EndOfStream)
{
data = reader.ReadLine();
if (data.Contains("Password:"))
{
//I want to enter password in cmd here
}
}
reader.Close();
if (NsStream == null)
NsStream.Close();
}
}
If you use a lib like SSH.NET you get all these problems solved for you and no need to reinvent the wheel again!
