83 - Entire Telnet Application Code .PDF Plus .Py

This Python script opens telnet connections to multiple devices using IP addresses from a file, logs in with username and password, sends configuration commands from another file to each device, and closes the connections. It first checks that the IP addresses and command files are valid, pings each device to check reachability, then uses threading to simultaneously open telnet connections and send the commands to each device in parallel.
