Please log in for more thread options I have fought this battle with Nortel tech support on three different products, the BPS 2000, the ERS 5500, and the ERS 8600. We use SecureCRT mostly, but it was broken with SSH on several revisions of BPS and 5500 code. The SecureCRT issue was fixed by VanDyke's update to SecureCRT 4.1 and Nortel's update to 3.1.5 on the BPS and 4.1 on the 5500. While SecureCRT was broken on the 5500 and BPS, we switched over to Putty 0.58. Once the problem as completely resolved with our BPS and 5500s, we upgraded our 8600s to 3.7.7. Now Putty 0.58 is broken in the manor that you described below with the 8600s, but SecureCRT continues to work. Nortel is implementing the fix for Putty 0.58 in 4.1 code for the 8600, which will probably be released sometime in 2006. This is a mess.... I would recommend opening a case. In both instances, this as resulted in a CR and a promised fix. -mike bobbychorlton wrote: | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Hi Bob, I have talked to Nortel support on this subject. There is no SSH CLI on the BCM 50. This interface is used internally for BCM applications (file transfers I guess) only. | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options I also believe that it can be used by Nortel support to diagnose issues
on the BCM. Cheers | ||||||||||||||||||||||
