How the OnBoard Manages Communications With Devices
OnBoard Expect Scripts
The Expect scripts are located in the /libexec/onboard directory
identified with the .exp suffix. The following table lists each of the defined
device types with the name of the associated Expect script.
Three additional custom types (custom1, custom2, and custom3) allow
OnBoard administrators to create up to three customized scripts. The
following table shows the names of the Expect scripts associated with each
of the custom types.
By default, the talk_customN.exp scripts contain warnings that they
have not been configured along with some brief instructions on how to get
them to work.
Note: Do not assign a customN type to a device unless you have created a
custom script with the same number in its name.
