Thanks Rene

I put in all of your advised changes and ssh login is now instant.

It used to take 2 minutes to login to HP Proliant sitting next to me :))

Glad to hear it helped Johan…2 minutes is a long time to wait for a console :slight_smile:

Thanks Rene,
It is very useful to me.
I fixed this problem

Actually, network engineer in our institute failed to fix this problem.

Hello Giovanni

Doing some research I have found that you may need to zeroize and recreate your key. If that doesn’t work, you may need to modify the ssh command you’re using to connect. Take a look at this Cisco community post and let us know your results.

I hope this has been helpful!

zerozize and recreate the key not solved the issue.

I was able to connect to the asav and the 3560 specifying the auth algorithm.

$ ssh -l <USERNAME> -oHostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss -oKexAlgorithms=+diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 <HOST>
It worked for Remmina too.

Thanks
