This is a proprietary front-end user interface riding on (what I believe to be) a Linux shell and, as such, the UI prevents access to the Linux command set.
The eventual command that I want to "send" is
There can be anywhere from one to ten files stored in the directory, so I need to parse the expect_out(buffer) for each file name, load that name into the variable configfile and then execute the above command, the repeat for as many files that are listed (I imagine using something like a foreach statement).
This is my simple expect scritpt:
#!/usr/bin/expect -f
match_max 100000
set timeout -1
spawn telnet $IP
expect "#"
send -- "shell\r"
expect "*Ready*"
send -- "init\r"
expect "*Ready*"
send -- "readsensor \r"
expect -- "*" <<< Output of this is a 2 digit number

nameif
NAMEIF(8) Linux System Administrator's Manual NAMEIF(8)NAME
nameif - name network interfaces based on MAC addresses
SYNOPSIS
nameif [-c configfile] [-s]
nameif [-c configfile] [-s] {interface macaddress}
NOTE
This program is obsolete. For replacement check ip link. This functionality is also much better provided by udev methods.
DESCRIPTION
nameif renames network interfaces based on mac addresses. When no arguments are given /etc/mactab is read. Each line of it contains an
interface name and a Ethernet MAC address. Comments are allowed starting with #. Otherwise the interfaces specified on the command line
are processed. nameif looks for the interface with the given MAC address and renames it to the name given.
When the -s argument is given all error messages go to the syslog.
When the -c argument is given with a file name that file is read instead of /etc/mactab.
NOTES
nameif should be run before the interface is up, otherwise it'll fail.
FILES
/etc/mactab
SEE ALSO ip(8), udev(7)BUGS
Only works for Ethernet currently.
