auto-script-cli

A CLI tool for automating firmware updates and configuration of telecom equipment over serial connections. Built during my studies and used in production to provision AudioCodes Mediant 500 (MSBR) routers.

How it works

1. Reads work order tickets (local files or network path) to extract provisioning data
2. Generates a configuration script from a template file
3. Connects to the device via serial port (115200 baud)
4. Checks the current firmware version — triggers a TFTP update if outdated
5. Applies the generated configuration script to the device

Requirements

• Python 3
• pyserial
• PuTTY (for manual serial inspection)
• Tftpd32 (TFTP server for firmware updates)

Notes

• Developed and tested on Windows — directory paths and serial commands may need adjustment for other operating systems
• The template files and firmware version string can be modified to target different equipment models
