vendor telnetlib

[hellt]

Poor old telnet, we will have to vendor it unless someone swaps the core to using scrapli

ktbyers/netmiko#3444

[kaelemc]

Migration shouldn't be too trivial for the 'core' devices.

I can probably slowly start work on that.

[hellt]

oh, if you can root out the telnet based wait_writes with scrapli (#164) that would have the biggest long term impact on vrnetlab

[kaelemc]

when is the next release planned?

[hellt]

there is no release schedule. The releases are cut whenever there is a substantial change merged into master that makes it worth tagging it

[kaelemc]

Should just wait_write be adapted to use scrapli or should we also attempt to use the relevant core drivers that exist?

[kaelemc]

For example, I see a lot Cisco devices are also using telnetlib.expect()
