CatTools Connect problem with HP2920

Hi,

Can you try using the variations for pre-login key settings with teh below help?

SolarWinds CatTools

Nanda

Thank you for the tip. I tried Post-Login Keystroke and when that did not work, i also entered Post-Login Message.

However, it still does not work ;-(

I get:

Login to RED2 failed

Did not receive command prompt after connecting via SSH

Waiting for command prompt

Login HP.Switch.Others: RED2

Using putty, i press SPACE after the login and then get command prompt: red-switch#

Any Idea what i could try ?

Hi,

Please do the below,

1.Configure the pre-login key stroke as space

2.Prelogin text as 'Press any key to continue'

And Try.

Hi Nanda,

Thank you for this. I did now use pre-login instead of post-login like you suggestet above. After i also changed the standard prompt to '#', the login actually worked.

However, now i have messages like "Waiting for an echo of screen-lenth disable command" or "Waiting for an echo of system-view command" and also failure to entering enable mode. (Now set command for enabled mode to "configure" and now have to figure out what expected prompt would be like.

I assume the current command set for HP.Switches.Others does not match too well with 2920 model.
