从php页面获取我的路由器VIA SSH CLI的信息

Question

All,

I'm fairly new to php (simple forms and hello world stuff)

I'm trying to create a page that when loaded will go out grab some text information from a SSH session on my router parse it out and display it

The general idea would be

connect to (ip address, port) send line (loginuser + Password) send line (su to root + password) send line (command) receive text from command (string X)

parse x and display stats as html on page

I've seen a few tutorials on how to install libraries from ubuntu but my host is godaddy so i wont have access to install anything in that manner (i only have simple ftp access)

I'm looking for a simple simple simple ssh client and hopefully a small example on how to use it (send commands and retrieve text)

Thanks if you can help

PHP is not the right tool in my opinion, you can achieve better results with expect and some bash stuff.

expect is a good tool for command line activities. Try to have a look
