The log is attached. I did further debugging and found that ssh via open
ssh succeeds, however when I enabled verbose option on it, I see some
lines that are interesting
DUKEOSTPDZ01:/var/tmp/jasmeet#ssh -v packet-design_at_172.17.248.203

This shows that the remote protocol version is 1.99. Does libssh2 work
with that ? I would assume no, but the folks using this device claim
that it used to work and then suddenly started failing without any
change to the device.

Thanks,
Jasmeet
