[lug] Cisco 675 router

[Chip Atkinson]

Wow, I didn't even know this was possible.  Thanks.  

As for the shell/expect script, definitely go with expect.  To easily
create a script use 
autoexpect
It creates an expect script from your typing commands.  When you're done,
type in exit and you have a good start for an expect script.  You may have
to edit it a bit to stop it from looking for dates or times in the
expected output, but the rest is pretty easy.
