FTP Traffic reports from SX-2000 to Ops Man

[becca1jane]

Has anyone ever written an expect script to ftp traffic reports back to Ops Man (similar to how ops man can collect smdr logs)? Traffic reports are running and I can capture them as long as I have a telnet session up, but this isn't possible 24/7 (session drops at activity switches). FTP will solve problem - but I haven't figured out how to get this done and back to Ops Man. Any ideas?

What's the traffic reports? Which port?

Traffic reports can be scheduled for different options (trunks, routes, attendants) to provide information on traffic flow, blocking, busy hours, etc.
Reports can only be sent to system ports LPR1 or LPR3, a console port, or a dataset (currently going to LPR3 which I then access and print to a file). This wouldn't be too much trouble other than the system disk will only hold 10 reports, and each report can cover a maximum time period of 1 hour - so to get all reports I would have to login and print reports every 10 hours (not gonna happen!).
