ios_config "no vlan 2000-4094" "end" not working in tclsh

jonasstenling · ‎05-20-2015

I have a small tcl script that I'm executing with tclsh on an IE3010 switch. The script only contains a number of ios_config rows and changes the configuration in various ways. Everything works as expected, the only row that fails is the following:

ios_config "no vlan 2000-4094" "end"

I've tried both with and without the "end" subcommand. When I execute the command interactively from tclsh it's accepted without any output, but it's not executed and the VLANs remain.

Do I have to treat "no vlan" in any special way in my script?

I tested here locally with a 15.0(2)SE7 on a 3560CG, and it worked. That said, I don't recommend people use tclsh as much these days. You'll have much more luck with EEM Tcl. Yes, it's not interactive, but your CLI commands will be near 100% reliable, especially if you're doing command authz.
