Hi,
since nowadays SSH is being deployed as one-and-only access method for IOS boxes in some installation, I'm somewhat struggling with the IOS ssh client:
Is there a way to tell the ssh client in which VRF it should do a lookup for the ssh server?
Something like the ssh equivalent of:
PE-box#telnet CE-box /vrf foo
There doesn't seem to be an option in the parser:
PE-box#ssh ?
-c Select encryption algorithm
-l Log in using this user name
-m Select HMAC algorithm
-o Specify options
-p Connect to this port
-v Specify SSH Protocol Version
WORD IP address or hostname of a remote system
Is anyone aware of a hidden one? Or is this feature road-mapped at least?
thanks,
Stefan

Hmm... looked all over the place but could not find anything specific that might help.
Since IOS is based on UNIX, sometimes Cisco leaves out some features, that can be used, even though they are not documented (like searching in long output using "/" or filtering already displayed output with "+"). So i tried binding ssh to an interface, because that should achieve the goal, but to no avail... It does not recognize "-b" option.
But then again, i don't have much real world experience with VRFs

Unfortunatly this feature is not yet available, CSCsa62544 is the ddts you should track, I *THINK* this would be available in 12.5T

Hi Sanjeewa,
thanks for the info - though I had the hope that this would happen somewhat sooner ;-)
Can you make CSCsa62544 viewable for non-Cisco folks - at the moment no description is available ...
thanks

Hi Stefan,
Nearly missed your reply :)
I shall try my best, the reason this is non-viewable from CCO is because of this not a defect but an internal software enhancement.
But I believe making it public viewable would help our customers.
