Resolution

1. Edit the template you use with the device and add the following commands:

 

To enable the multi command logic:

<Command Name="UseMultipleDownloadCommands" Value="True"/>
<Command Name="DownloadConfig" Value="${ConfigType}" RegEx="#"/>


To create a custom config type to include, for example, multiple show commands:
 

<Command Name="foobar" Value="show tech-support ${CRLF}show version | include password${CRLF}"/>

 

2. Go to Webconsole > Settings > NCM Settings > Configs, and then create a custom config type that will match the custom config from the template. In this case it is named foobar.

3. Click Submit.
