I'm trying to capture over SSH from a Sophos gateway. tcpdump is installed and functions fine but whenever you SSH into the device, you first have to navigate a couple of menu selections to get to the CLI prompt (press 5 for device management and then press 3 for "advanced shell").
Is there any way to pass these menu selections automatically with Plink?
plink can read in a command file:
-m file read remote command(s) from file

4. Execute Multiple Linux Commands from a Windows File
Warning that it may not work with some devices:

With some servers (particularly Unix systems), you can even put multiple lines in this file and execute more than one command in sequence, or a whole shell script; but this is arguably an abuse, and cannot be expected to work on all servers. In particular, it is known not to work with certain ‘embedded’ servers, such as Cisco routers.
