SSH into Router to make changes

Im trying to use the SSH tool to be able to change a router ip via SSH, it is very simple via putty and port 22. We have a lot of the routers that we want to automate some of those configurations. I've tried some of your examples but can't seem to get any to work. Below is just a basic test with a test box where I just want to see the interface information but it fails at couple of places where there is hostkey prompt that should indicate yes or no to accept the key but I don't see it . I have a form with button and the SshTerminalControl1 on it, Not sure what else I'm missing. I don't see any information in the terminal control either. Imports ComponentPro.Net Imports ComponentPro.Net.Terminal Public Class Form1 Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load End Sub Private Sub Button4_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button4.Click HandleHostKeyVerifyingEvent() End Sub Public Sub HandleHostKeyVerifyingEvent() Try ' Create a new instance. Dim client As New SshClient() ' AddHandler client.HostKeyVerifying, AddressOf client_HostKeyVerifying 'Fails here client.Connect("172.16.0.1", 22) ' Or you can specify the SFTP port with ' client.Connect("myserver", 22); ' Authenticate. client.Authenticate("admin", "password") ' Do something here... ' ... Dim shell As TerminalShell = client.CreateShell(True) ' Print any welcome messages, if available. Console.WriteLine(shell.ReadToEnd()) ' Send 'Showing the interface information' command. shell.SendCommand("show interface x1") Console.WriteLine(shell.ReadToEnd()) ' Disconnect. client.Disconnect() Catch ex As Exception MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString) End Try End Sub Private Sub client_HostKeyVerifying(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As HostKeyVerifyingEventArgs) ' Print out the fingerprint info. Console.Write(String.Format("Host key: {0}. Do you want to accept this host key?(y/n):", e.HostKey.ToString())) Dim answer As String = Console.ReadLine() ' Accept the fingerprint if user entered "y". e.Accept = answer.ToLower() = "y" 'Fails here saying something is null' End Sub End Class The commands I want to send to the Router is in order below right after you would login is: - interface x1 - ip-assignment WAN static - ip - netmask - gateway - dns primary - commit - exit - exit - exit I need to translate these commands into your SSH tool via vb.net. If this all passes then I can move forward to purchasing your tool. Thanks

In case the Ssh Shell class does not work for your router, you can use the VirtualTerminal class. Please check this topic out: [http://doc.componentpro.com/ComponentPro-Terminal/Starting-a-VirtualTerminal][1] [1]: http://doc.componentpro.com/ComponentPro-Terminal/Starting-a-VirtualTerminal
