To use SuperPuTTY as default client for telnet in Eve-NG for multi tab console
When we click on Router or Switch in EVE-NG by default console open in CMD. Here I posting a method to use SuperPutty with EVE-NG so that you can use TAB function of SuperPutty.
You need to edit registry
Enable handling of telnet://hostname:port/ URLs on the command line. With this feature, you can now set SuperPuTTY as the default handler for Telnet URLs
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\telnet\shell\open\command to be: "\path\to\SuperPutty.exe"
(with the full pathname of your SuperPuTTY executable)
In my case it like this :
C:\Program Files (x86)\SuperPuTTY\SuperPutty.exe %1
Second most important thing :
Select "Only allow single instance of SuperPutty to run" in SuperPutty options (Tools > Options)
And in GUI options , select Tab Text : "Dynamic"
And Finally you will get the multi tab console in Superputty :
Edit:
Please use Mozilla Firefox. When you click on devices in EVE-NG , Popup will come to select the software to console the device.
I found that above solution which I have described is working some time and doesn't work other time.

Everyone using Firefox, go into the Firefox menu, then "Options", then type 'telnet' in the search bar, then change the default program for telnet to SuperPutty.
ReplyDeleteHi Samarth,
ReplyDeleteI found a different approach to make it work regardless of what web browser we are using to access EVE-NG. There is a folder location from where EVE-NG picks up the putty.exe location. Its under "C:\Program Files\EVE-NG\win10_64bit_putty.reg". My first logic was to edit this file and point it to superputty folder directory, so that it will launch superputty instead of putty however no luck. Therefore I removed the changes i made to the win10_64bit_putty.reg file. Secondly, I copied all the files under "C:\Program Files (x86)\SuperPuTTY" and moved them under "C:\Program Files\EVE-NG".
Subsequently, I shuffled putty and superputty executable names with each other and voila, it did the trick. i.e. if we rename superputty.exe with putty.exe and rename the original putty.exe to putty123.exe then EVE-NG always launches superputty. Hope this helps.
