Do you really need to use ssh? Some of those devices also accept telnet, and it seems to be used on LAN only.

sshpass is very insecure, but given there's no way to use keys there's no securer alternatives.

Code:
sshpass -padmin ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no user@10.0.0.10 <<EOF
command
EOF

Do not indent the ending EOF.
