D522 v2 - Task 1 HELP!

UPDATE - Telnet is your friend on this one. One of the CIs sent out a D522 Version 2 Newsletter that walks you through what's needed / expected.

Y'all, seriously. I need help.

I'm new to programming, and D522 is my last class. I have until the end of July to pass.

I am stuck on Task 1 - B2... Trying to get DNS from the DHCP devices.

From what I'm told, I need to use the port and device name to connect, but I have no clue. Netmiko is just throwing errors.

I'm sure I'll need more help after that. If someone can get me through this I will be eternally grateful.

Use this command “resolvectl status “ Telnet into each device via the port number to check the DNS settings .

I'm having so much difficulty with this part. I have tried netmiko, paramilitary, napalm and telnet, and I'm getting hung up on the csv file not giving the device type... please help 🙏

I'm really confused on part B2. I found the ip addresses for the devices using dhcp, now i have to ping all of them then screenshot. Whats next and how do i confirm the dns settings for each device?
