I have no issue SSH manually from Linux client to Cisco Router.
However when I try to connect to the same Router using Python netmiko, the following error occurred.
>>> from netmiko import ConnectHandler
>>> R1 = {
... 'device_type': 'cisco_ios',
... 'ip': '10.10.10.10',
... 'username': 'u',
... 'password': 'p'
... }
>>>
>>> net_connect = ConnectHandler(**R1)
Exception: Incompatible version (2.99 instead of 2.0)

What's wrong with this and how to fix it?
