dsh-console-hub: Telnet/Raw TCP Session and Command Control Plugin for Network Devices
`dsh-console-hub` is a network device console plugin developed for DSH agent development. It connects to devices via Telnet or Raw TCP and provides features such as session management, command interaction, configuration CRUD operations, and automatic pagination handling. Its core capabilities include interception and approval gating for high-risk commands, sleep detection and wake-up, and support for multiple encodings. Installation requires a Node.js and Harness environment. This plugin addresses the pain point of general-purpose solutions lacking fine-grained management; however, it only supports Telnet/TCP-IP, does not provide session isolation, and relies on regular-expression-based recognition. Device-side permission restrictions are recommended to ensure security.
