send_command_timing "copy tftp flash" to download sw from tftp server

Hi, I want to do tftp with the below commands, to download sw from the server. What can I do to click the enter command after question?

From CLI, Manual config:

R#copy tftp:WANold.pcap bootflash: Address or name of remote host ->I need to type ip address for the first command run Source filename [WANold.pcap]? ->I need to click enter Destination filename [WANold.pcap]? -> i need to click enter Accessing tftp://10.10.12.145/WANold.pcap… Loading WANold.pcap from 10.10.12.145 (via GigabitEthernet0/0/0): ! [OK - 43655 bytes]

Python Script:

net_connect = Netmiko(**host1)
command1 = ("copy tftp:WANold.pcap bootflash:")  # Enter set of commands

print("Connected to:", net_connect.find_prompt())             # Display hostname
output = net_connect.enable()
print(net_connect.find_prompt())

Tftp_server = "10.10.12.145"

output = net_connect.send_command_timing(command1)
if 'Address or name of remote host' in output:
    output += net_connect.send_command_timing(Tftp_server)
if 'Source filename' in output:
    # switch back to send_command() here as this might be slow
    output += net_connect.send_command()
if 'Destination filename' in output:
    # switch back to send_command() here as this might be slow
    output += net_connect.send_command()
net_connect.disconnect()                                        # Disconnect from Session
print(output)

Error:

Traceback (most recent call last): File “C:\Users\tftp-2.py”, line 29, in <module> output += net_connect.send_command() File “C:\Users\venv\lib\site-packages\netmiko\utilities.py”, line 429, in wrapper_decorator return func(self, *args, **kwargs) TypeError: send_command() missing 1 required positional argument: ‘command_string’

Hi Kirk,

I used a different command format and worked this time, thank you for the examples, they’re helping me a lot. Do you know somewhere that I can find paramiko examples as well?
