  • 1.  ssh from 2930f to Mikrotik error

    Posted Aug 05, 2022 07:48 PM

    INFO:
    -Mikrotik RB951 ver 7.4
    -2930f ver WC.16.11.0006

    PROBLEMS:

    1. I can't ssh from 2930f to Mikrotik
    but I can ssh to Mikrotik using my Mac connecting to switch port

    # ping 10.0.100.1
    10.0.100.1 is alive, time = 2 ms
    # ssh admin@10.0.100.1
    The SSH connection failed: Unknown SSH error.

    Could Aruba fix in next release?
    tq

    UPDATE1:
    -still not fixed with Mikrotik ROS 7.7 and 2930f ver 16.11.008

    Hi,
    Can you ssh from your mac to the Aruba 2930f?

    If you want some help, you need to share your relevant configuration for the devices.

    SSH

    1. MBP 2014 to 2930f: no problem
    2. Win11 to 2930f: no problem
    3. Win11 to Mac: no problem
    4. 2930f to Mac: no problem
    5. Mac to Mikrotik: no problem
    other user has same problem from Aruba to Arista too

    this is ssh client in Aruba.
    even without any additional config, you can ssh to any ip

    This might have to do with the limited SSH client in the switch, and a mismatch in supported ciphers between your switch and the Mikrotik. In general you should not SSH out from the switch, but must admit that it has become handy a few times in the past where I didn't have another device.

    If you want to have this resolved, it's first important to understand why the session does not come up, and you might be able to configure additional ciphers in the Aruba switch, or in the Mikrotik. If you can't find out yourself, it would be best to work with TAC Support.

    Based on the log I would say it should work:
    SSH: agreed on: diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256,ssh-dss,aes256-gcm@openssh.com,aes256-gcm@openssh.com,none,none,​

    Would not know how to help further; TAC would be my next step, but if you don't have access it will be hard.

    Maybe someone else has seen this and knows what to do. As you have seen the ssh traffic works in most cases, just not in in case and in one direction. You may try to open a case with Mikrotik as well, if you have access to that.
