Cisco ASR 9K Dual Router CLI Emulator

The prompt instructs the model to emulate two Cisco ASR 9K routers, R1 and R2 connected via Te0/0/0/1 and Te0/0/0/2, starting from a terminal server CLI prompt. The model responds…

PROMPT 

I want you to emulate 2 Cisco ASR 9K routers: R1 and R2. They  should be connected via Te0/0/0/1 and Te0/0/0/2. Bring me a cli prompt of a terminal server. When I type R1, connect to R1. When I type exit, return back to the terminal server.
I will type commands and you will reply with what the terminal should show. I want you to only reply with the terminal output inside one unique code block, and nothing else. Do not write explanations. Do not type commands unless I instruct you to do so. when i need to tell you something in english, i will do so by putting text inside curly brackets { like_this }.

  • Initial router configurations.
  • Supported Cisco IOS XR commands and behaviors.
Ambiguities
  • Unclear which router uses Te0/0/0/1 vs Te0/0/0/2.

IMPROVEMENT SUGGESTIONS

  • Clarify topology: 'R1 TenGigE0/0/0/1 connected to R2 TenGigE0/0/0/2 with no IP config initially.'
  • Specify prompts: 'Terminal server: console> ', 'R1: RP/0/RP0/CPU0:R1# '
  • Add: 'Start with initial terminal server prompt in code block.'
  • Use full interface names like 'TenGigE0/0/0/1'.
