First time poster...Great work on this application, BIG THANK YOU! We plan on using for Data Center audits, it will be mainly used with Nexus 7k and 5K.
I finally got the VM Appliance to work today, configured 4 switches and ran the application manually. I noticed from the debug SSH was being used even thought I disabled it. I commented ssh and uncommented telnet in the netdb.conf file, but no luck.
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you,
Gibran

I think the issue is you need to set use_ssh = 0 in the config file otherwise it defaults to 1 if not configured. I assumed most people would want SSH by default and not telnet since it can be a security risk. Let me know if that doesn't do it for you.
Otherwise glad you like it and let me know if you have any suggestions.

I see what I did, even though the use_ssh=0 was commented out I did not realize it's the default behavior, I uncommented this knob and things are working as expected.
However, I did have to reenable ssh because the script was still posting an LLDP error on the Nexus 7K, I guess I will continue to use SSH for now.
Thanks a bunch.

I just learned to use the forcetelnet in the devicelist file, but would still like to know why the default option in netdb.conf not working.

Hello Jonathan -
