Closed brickzva closed 7 years ago

Problem escaping special characters used in passwords in .netmiko.yml. Only work around found is to change password.

Dictionaries are devices

home-881: device_type: cisco_ios ip: 192.168.1.2 username: admin password: #e43n1! << original and with "\" fails port: 22

Non-issue... 5 minutes more of research on yaml would have shown wrapping in quotes solves issue.
