rancid(1) General Commands Manual rancid(1)NAME
rancid - Cisco configuration filter
SYNOPSIS
rancid [-dlV] (-f filename | hostname)
DESCRIPTION
rancid is a perl(1) script which uses the login scripts (see clogin(1)) to login to a device, execute commands to display the
configuration, etc, then filters the output for formatting, security, and so on. rancid's product is a file with the name of it's last
argument plus the suffix .new. For example, hostname.new.
There are complementary scripts for other platforms and/or manufacturers that are supported by rancid(1). Briefly, these are:
agmrancid Cisco Anomaly Guard Module (AGM)
arancid Alteon WebOS switches
arrancid Arista Networks devices
brancid Bay Networks (nortel)

srancid SMC switch (some Dell OEMs)
trancid Netopia sDSL/T1 routers
tntrancid Lucent TNT
xrancid Extreme switches
xrrancid Cisco IOS-XR boxes
zrancid Zebra routing software
The command-line options are as follows:
-V Prints package name and version strings.
-d Display debugging information.
-l Display somewhat less debugging information.
-f rancid should interpret the next argument as a filename which contains the output it would normally collect from the device (
hostname) with clogin(1).

Cisco IOS offers a DHCP server that maintains a text database which can be stored remotely or on local storage. If stored locally, the
file changes constantly and causes constant diffs from rancid. If this file's name ('ip dhcp database') matches the regex
dhcp_[^[:space:].].txt, it will be filtered.
For Catalyst switches running CatOS, type cat5, the prompt must end with '>'. clogin(1) looks for '>' to determine when a login is
successful. For example:
cat5k>
cat5k> enable
Password:
cat5k> (enable)
rancid works on Cisco Catalyst 1900 series switches that are running Enterprise Edition software. This software provides a menu at
connection time that allows a command line interface to be used by entering 'K' at the prompt.
