oxidized with ssh proxy and telnet

[joschi99]

We are using oxidized through a ssh proxy (different jumphosts) to access switches on different sites. This is working very well as we are connecting to switches using SSH, but there are some network devices only with telnet access and at the moment we are not able to connect to this switches:

oxidized -> SSH -> jumphost -> SSH -> Network device: OK oxidized -> SSH -> jumphost -> telnet -> Network device: FAIL

Is there are way to do this? #1235 seems similar case, but closed without any solution.

Not sure if this will help in your case, but I have written a ssh to telnet proxy - https://github.com/eoprede/ssh_to_telnet_proxy If you have a good place to run that code on, oxydized would connect to it just like any ssh host (so all the proxying should work too) and be able to do whatever it needs to

I have the same problem: https://github.com/ytti/oxidized/issues/2536 Unafortunelly, no solution yet.
