Cisco Nexus 1000V

Hello,

This is a great library.  I made a simple modification so that I could use it against a Nexus 1KV, which is attached.  The odd thing is the hello doesn't seem to be sent and I receive the following error.  Source is attached.

Setting up SSH transport client .. 

SSH transport client setup complete.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hello,

   Actually, your changes look fine to me; I am not sure why you get that error, other than the device does not expect the standard NETCONF "hello" message.

   To simplify things though, I would start with:

• Hardcoding "xmlagent" in the SshConnection.java source (replace "netconf" with "xmlagent").
  
• Run the SshTransportClientTest class to take in an input file and send it to the device.

  That way, you can verify that your source changes and tests are very restricted. If THAT does not work, I would sniff the network packets and see what is going on the wire.

   Let me know how things work out.
