[c-nsp] Dump full route table to a file

[Network.Security]

Expect or the Net::Telnet module in Perl could do the similar thing.  As
Paul wrote, the "term length 0" is only for your specific VTY session,
it doesn't change anything in the config, so subsequent users won't
stream stuff across their screens.

Then just dump the result to a text file or whatever is convenient
within your Perl experience.  Once that is all set, cron it as needed
and you're all set from an automation perspective.

Not saying this is the best or easiest way, but it would work.  :)

paging is controlled byt he vty so an expect script could do this quite
easily.. 
alternatively maybe rcmd could be an option for you..
