I added support for the NEC Univerge IX Router series.
https://jpn.nec.com/univerge/ix/index.html

Test configuration:

test_devices.yml

nec_ix:
device_type: nec_ix
ip: 192.168.1.30
username: test-ix
password: testnecix123
session_log: 'netmiko_session.log'

commands.yml

nec_ix:
version: "show version"
config_mode_command: "configure"
basic: "show ip interface"
extended_output: "show running-config"
config:
- "logging buffered 4096"
- "logging timestamp datetime"
- "logging buffered 8192"
config_verification: "show running-config"
config_file: "nec_ix_commands.txt"

responses.yml

nec_ix:
base_prompt: Router
router_prompt : Router#
enable_prompt: Router(config)#
interface_ip: 192.168.1.30
version_banner: "IX Series"
multiple_line_output: "interface Null0.0"
file_check_cmd: "10.0.0.1/24"

nec_ix_commands.txt

interface GigaEthernet2.0
ip address 10.0.0.1/24
no shutdown

I will send the test results, but there are some issues.

Issues:

exit_config_mode

test_exit_config_mode in test_netmiko_config.py, an error occurs because check_config_mode returns True after exit_config_mode. Although the configure command is used to return to the top menu of the configure mode from the interface configure mode, the prompt usually remains the same. Using the exit command will exit the configure mode, limiting the available show commands. Therefore, it is necessary to use the configure command as much as possible.

example command logging

Router(config-GigaEthernet2.0)#
Router(config-GigaEthernet2.0)# configure
Router(config)#
Router(config)# configure
Router(config)#
Router(config)# exit
Router#

Telnet driver

There is a bug in the Telnet driver. When performing telnet access, login fails and returns a "telnet connection closed" error.

When debugging with debug logs and breakpoints, it was found that the base_connection forcibly closes the session when executing output = self.read_channel(). Router debug logging reveals that the TELS.003: Disconnected client log is outputted at the timing of output = self.read_channel().

while i <= max_loops:
try:
output = self.read_channel() # breakpoint
return_msg += output

            if re.search(username_pattern, output, flags=re.I):

I have fixed the Telnet bug by ignoring option negotiation to maintain the session.

class NecIxTelnet(NecIxBase):
    """NecIx Telnet driver."""

    def ignore_option_negotiation(self, sock, cmd, opt):
        pass

    def telnet_login(
            self,
            pri_prompt_terminator: str = r"#\s*$",
            alt_prompt_terminator: str = r">\s*$",
            username_pattern: str = r"login",
            pwd_pattern: str = r"assword",
            delay_factor: float = 1.0,
            max_loops: int = 20,
        ) -> str:
        self.remote_conn.set_option_negotiation_callback(self.ignore_option_negotiation)
        return super().telnet_login(
            pri_prompt_terminator = pri_prompt_terminator,
            alt_prompt_terminator = alt_prompt_terminator,
            username_pattern = username_pattern,
            pwd_pattern = pwd_pattern,
            delay_factor = delay_factor,
            max_loops = max_loops
        )

@ktbyers I have recently modified the code and committed the tested code. Please check the code.

@ktbyers I fixed it to reference the internal telnetlib, but I'm still getting an error because there's an undefined type.
