IP and expect scripting
Hi

I am new to IP configuration and using expect script

I have a requirement like

I need to write a expect script that can ssh to a remote machine(linux1) using password which already has IP, once logged inside machine need to reboot remote machine(linux1) and again login to same remote machine(linux1)with username and password then configure IP.

Because I need to install few packages which can be edited by me once a clue is provided

As of now I did the following:
Code:
body { margin: 0 0 0 0; padding:0 0 0 0 } td,div { font-family:Arial;font-size:10pt;vertical-align:top } /* Copyright IBM Corp. 2014  All Rights Reserved.                    */ body { margin: 0 0 0 0; padding:0 0 0 0; overflow:hidden; background-color:#fafafa; } .grayBackground { background-color:#f6f6f6; } .transcript { background-color:#d2d2d2;} .messageBlock {padding-left:10px; padding-right:10px;padding-top:0} .expansion{height:10px;width:100%;overflow:hidden;} .expansionx{height:10px;overflow:hidden;} .line{height:1px;background-color:#cccccc;overflow:hidden;} .message { padding-left:0px; padding-right:65px;margin-left:0px; word-wrap:break-word; white-space:-moz-pre-wrap; _white-space:pre; white-space:pre-wrap;} .messageCont { padding-left:20px; margin-left:95px; word-wrap:break-word; white-space:-moz-pre-wrap; _white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;} .other { font-size:11px;color:#1970b0;vertical-align:top;font-weight:bold;font-style:normal;float:left; width:95px; white-space:nowrap; } .myself { font-size:11px;color:#222222;font-style:normal;font-weight:bold;font-style:normal;float:left; width:95px; white-space:nowrap; } .otherCont { font-size:8px;text-align:right; color:#1970b0;font-family:Arial,Lucida Grande;font-style:normal;vertical-align:top;font-weight:bold;float:left; width:95px; } .myselfCont { font-size:8px;text-align:right; color:#222222;font-family:Arial,Lucida Grande;font-style:normal;vertical-align:top;font-weight:bold;float:left; width:95px; } .system { font-size:11px; word-wrap:break-word;color:#d13f08;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal; white-space:-moz-pre-wrap; _white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap; } .showTimestamp { padding-left:20px;font-size:11px; float:right; color:#999999;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal; } .other1 { font-size:11px; color:#ba006e;vertical-align:top;font-weight:bold;font-style:normal;float:left; width:95px; } .otherCont1 { font-size:8px;text-align:right; color:#ba006e;font-family:Arial,Lucida Grande;font-style:normal;vertical-align:top;font-weight:bold;float:left; width:95px; } .other2 { font-size:11px; color:#007670;vertical-align:top;font-weight:bold;font-style:normal;float:left; width:95px; } .otherCont2 { font-size:8px;text-align:right; color:#007670;font-family:Arial,Lucida Grande;font-style:normal;vertical-align:top;font-weight:bold;float:left; width:95px; } .other3 { font-size:11px; color:#3b0256;vertical-align:top;font-weight:bold;font-style:normal;float:left; width:95px; } .otherCont3 { font-size:8px;text-align:right; color:#3b0256;font-family:Arial,Lucida Grande;font-style:normal;vertical-align:top;font-weight:bold;float:left; width:95px; } .other4 { font-size:11px; color:#00512b;vertical-align:top;font-weight:bold;font-style:normal;float:left; width:95px; } .otherCont4 { font-size:8px;text-align:right; color:#00512b;font-family:Arial,Lucida Grande;font-style:normal;vertical-align:top;font-weight:bold;float:left; width:95px; } .other5 { font-size:11px; color:#a91024;vertical-align:top;font-weight:bold;font-style:normal;float:left; width:95px; } .otherCont5 { font-size:8px;text-align:right; color:#a91024;font-family:Arial,Lucida Grande;font-style:normal;vertical-align:top;font-weight:bold;float:left; width:95px; } .other6 { font-size:11px; color:#b8471b;vertical-align:top;font-weight:bold;font-style:normal;float:left; width:95px; } .otherCont6 { font-size:8px;text-align:right; color:#b8471b;font-family:Arial,Lucida Grande;font-style:normal;vertical-align:top;font-weight:bold;float:left; width:95px; } .other7 { font-size:11px; color:#7f1c7d;vertical-align:top;font-weight:bold;font-style:normal;float:left; width:95px; } .otherCont7 { font-size:8px;text-align:right; color:#7f1c7d;font-family:Arial,Lucida Grande;font-style:normal;vertical-align:top;font-weight:bold;float:left; width:95px; } .highlight { background-color:#bed6f8; } .datestamp { padding-right:0px; font-size:11px; cursor:default;padding-top:1px;padding-bottom:1px; background-color:#a7a7a7; width:100%; float:left; text-align:right; color:#333333; font-weight:bold; font-style:italic; } #chatAlert { float:left; border-bottom:1px solid #E8D091; padding:6px; width:100%; color:#A5754C; } #chatAlertImage { float:left; } #chatAlertText { float:left; margin-left:6px; margin-right:10px;} #chatAlertClose { float:right; margin-right:10px; padding-right:6px; margin-top:0px; } #chatAlertText a { color:#A5754C; } #chatAlertText a:hover { color:#A5754C; text-decoration:none; }  .tsDisplay { display:block }.dsDisplay { display:none }

Is the body section in your post necessary? Is this just pasted in error? There is an Edit button way, way, way over on the right hand side if you want to adjust it.

It would be far easier to generate an SSH-key pair and automate the login that way. You can then easily run the commands you need like this:-
Code:
ssh user@server "commands"
