All your assumptions were correct and your advice spot on, Thank You!!!
In the sub-routine "cisco_ssh_login" I move a couple of declarations up to to make them visible outside of the if statements
and wrapped the call to "ssh->login()" method with eval,
added a check on "$@" to force exit and return a value I could use to check the subroutine call and launch the telnet routine.
sub cisco_ssh_login {
my $login_output = "";
my $enable = "";
eval {
$login_output = $ssh->login();
if ($login_output !~ /username|password|passcode|#|>/) {
die "Login has failed.
Login output was $login_output";
}
};
if( $@ =~ m/SSHProcessError The ssh process was terminated/ ) {
# Login Failed Leave Sub Routine with value "ssh_failed"
return "ssh_failed";
}
....
}
....
$login_result = &cisco_ssh_login();
if ( $login_result eq "ssh_failed") { $login_result = &cisco_telnet_l
+ogin(); };
Thanks for taking the time to help a newbie out.
For those Struggling Like I was here is the working code I used.
I will point out it took awhile to get here and the learning is important as is the struggle.
