[c-nsp] modify cisco router config with scripting

[chris stand]

Try "ciscocmd",
I think it is at version 1.5.
it is based on Expect and is pretty easy to do some great things with it.
I use it even from my linux box to do remote commands and then send the
output to my bash environment.

for instance I wanted to find some stuff from a file of mac addresses

for mac in `cat p `; do ./ciscocmd --ssh -u ME -p PSWD -t 6509 -c "show arp
| inc $mac "; done  |grep -i console

all from my desk without manually connecting

if you are interested I can share more,.
