Well I think it´s something about having to remove the macro´s when you are done.
One thing I think very sad is that the lab is running 12.2(44) on the switches which does not support TCL. Hope that they change it in the future to 2(55) as it does support TCL scripts Med venlig hilsen | Best regards Thomas Raabo Senior Network Engineer CCIE #33466 _____________________________________________ [email protected] | Direkte: +45 69 10 60 18 | Tlf.: +45 70 23 55 66 -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] På vegne af Keller Giacomarro Sendt: 3. marts 2012 18:47 Til: Marko Milivojevic Cc: [email protected] Emne: Re: [OSL | CCIE_RS] Use of TCL - In Lab I've asked about this before, but this seems like a good discussion to ask again. Why do people prefer TCL over using simple macros? I find macros to be far more intuitive, repeatable, and easy to use. In my experience, I've had a lot of trouble copy-pasting TCL scripts into my routers -- it seems to get hung up between tclsh and the actual script. Instead, I use macros for all my devices. conf t macro name ping_all do ping 10.0.0.1 do ping 10.0.0.2 do ping 10.0.0.3 do ping 10.0.0.4 @ Then to run: conf t macro global apply ping_all These work on both routers running 12.4T and switches and are much easier to repeat than tcl scripts. On top of that, I always see the suggestion to implement macros on switches -- why do double the work? Your thoughts appreciated -- any benefit to using TCL with macros supported on all platforms?
