Dear All,

Following the meetup,

I got 2 people asking for the workaround to connect to CISCO using OpenSSH client 6.5.

Here it is:

ssh -oKexAlgorithms=diffie-hellman-group14-sha1 -oCiphers=aes128-ctr,aes128-cbc -oMACs=hmac-sha1 user at host


Basically, you need to use DH-group14-sha1, aes-128 bit cipher, and an the old HMAC. I'm working closely with CISCO so that a proper solution is implemented on their side.

Kind regards,
//Logan
