IOS – Passing commands with ssh

Before getting started with this little tip, I just wanted to drop a short note to you all to let you know that James and I have not abandoned the blog. We have just taken an “unannounced” three month vacation. Or you could say that “life happened” to us both and three months slipped by.
I have been trying to find the time to put together something really impressive after being out for so long, but I have decided it is better to just get back to work. As a way of getting back into the swing of things, I thought I would do a small writeup on an IOS feature that I recently stumbled across. I have known for a while that it is possible to pass commands between Linux machines via ssh by simply adding a command to the end of the ssh command string. I recently tried it on a router and to my surprise … it worked. Cool!
