Start with the documentation for Net::Telnet
perldoc Net::Telnet
From the documentation:
login - perform standard login
This method performs a standard login by waiting for a login prompt
[...]If any of those prompts sent by the remote
side don't match what's expected, this method will time-out, unless
timeout is turned off.
[...]
Use "dump_log()" to debug when this method keeps timing-out and you
don't think it should.
Maybe waitfor() will help.
