Hi,
I have a netconf-enabled device that I am having problems connecting to in yangsuite. The device is IPv6-only, and requires an SSH identity file to connect to the netconf listener on 830. I do not have the password for the device.
I can ping the device by name (via /etc/hosts) or by address using ping6. I can ssh to the device (host, address, user & identity file defined in ~/.ssh/config) directly in the local terminal.
When I set up the device in yangsuite, the test connection results in ping failure ("ping: cannot resolve <IPv6-address> | <hostname>: Unknown host"), and netconf fails ("AuthenticationException('Authentication failed.')"). I've tried changing the yangsuite device address field to use the hostname defined in /etc/hosts and in ~/.ssh/config, to use [IPv6-address] and the IPv6 address on it's own. I've also changed the Host entry in ~/.ssh/config between the hostname from /etc/hosts and the device's IPv6 address.
None of those combinations work. It seems like inside yangsuite ping is not using v6, and netconf connectivity is not referring to the local ssh config.
With these constraints, is there a path forward to connect to the device using yangsuite?
