Cisco Process Orchestrator Adapter Help for Terminal Adapter
Overview
The Terminal adapter provides the functionality to execute commands, scripts and session-based
activities against a system or network device using SSH or Telnet. While SSH is more secure than telnet,
many environments use a telnet connection and using a SSH connection against such devices will not be
possible. The Terminal adapter was improved to allow users the flexibility to execute against those
devices.

many environments use a telnet connection and using a SSH connection against such devices will not be
possible. The Terminal adapter was improved to allow users the flexibility to execute against those
devices.
The Terminal adapter allows Cisco Process Orchestrator to run commands and script activities on a
system or network device that has Secure Shell (SSH) enabled. The Terminal adapter also contains three
session-based activities which allow users to open new SSH/Telnet sessions and interact with the
previously opened sessions.

SSH and Telnet leverage the same command execution activities differentiated by the target type they
are deployed against. For example, an IOS target can have SSH or telnet optionally configured.
