echo "add password * {redbackpwd}" > ~/.cloginrc.rb

clogin -f ~/.cloginrc.rb redbackhostname

or alias the command.

there are no knobs within clogin to do selection based on manufacturer
or platform nor does it consider the router.db file which has that data.
the most convenient way imo is via dns;

redback -> nas0.city
router -> r0.city
switch -> s0.city

echo "add password nas* {redbackpwd}" >> ~/.cloginrc

Do it by name of device. e.g.:

add password cisco* {x} {y}
add password red* {z} {tt}

or whatever names you are using.
