CTRL+SHIFT+6 X not working on 17.3

I am using a Cisco 4321 as terminal server running 17.03.04a using a NIM-16a and octupus cable to Catalyst 9000 switches. I SSH onto the terminal server and then use the menu command to connect to the switches. 

menu MYMENU title ^CC

************************    TERMINAL SERVER   **************************

************************         MENU         **************************

      To exit ssh session and return to the menu press

   <CTRL>+<SHFT>+<6> then <X>.  To clear a connection to begin

 a new console session type cls# (where # = the menu item number)

               Type "exit" to return to main menu.

I only have access to PuTTY 0.76 and CTRL+SHIFT+6 X doesn't kill the session on the target switch and return to the terminal server.  If I leave it the connection timesout and returns to the terminal server.

According to all the documentation I have read CTRL+SHIFT+6 X should work. That is what is in all documentation

Hello,

odd. Make sure you press Ctrl + Shift + 6, then release these three keys and immediately press 'x' after that. I have also read that sometimes you might have to type '6' multiple times...give that a try.

Hi

Thanks for the suggestion but it makes no difference. I have read on certain forums that Putty has an issue with CTRL+SHIFT+6 sequence.

Hello,

that is possible. You could try TeraTerm, if that is an option for you...
