Hi,

can you share some code to see if the problem lays in it?
We are using Posh-SSH to make SNMP get and walks on a dedicated linux vm and this works without a problem.

begin {
        if($PSCmdlet.ParameterSetName -eq "Single") {
            $SshSession = New-SSHSession -ComputerName $ComputerName -Credential $secret:SshCredential -AcceptKey -Verbose
        }
    }

    process {
        $Continue = $true
        $OidQueries = @()
        $QuerySplitted = $OidQuery.split(" ")
....
        $SshOutput = @()
        $SshErrors = ""
        foreach($Query in $OidQueries) {
            $SshResult = Posh-SSH\Invoke-SSHCommand -SSHSession $SshSession -Command $Query
            $SshOutput += $SshResult.Output
            $SshErrors += $SshResult.Error
        }
....


And yes you can save your credentials in variables within PSU.

Hi @ms1,

thx for your reply. After i renewed the secret and used your $sshsession snipplet, it worked like a charm.
