Add telnet support

Open tom0010 opened this issue 6 years ago • 5 comments

I don't see any reference to telnet support in the code. It would be good if you could add it. I regularly use telnet to test connections/and my code in an emulated env (using eve-ng). Currently I've been using Netmiko, which supports this, I would love it if you could add the support in. Thanks.

Hello, @t1hom7as! Right now netdev is based upon asyncssh, and it supports only ssh. At the start of writing this library, no implementation of async telnet had existed. But right now I see that one implementation exists: telnetlib3. I will plan to implement it, thank you!

Ok great - I look forward to it!

This is an excellent library! I really hope telnet support gets added soon.
