Description
I'm trying to connect to an AudioCodes Mediant 2600 device, but Posh-SSH just times out.
If I connect to the device in PuTTY, there are packets exchanged about the client and server protocols, then the Key Exchange Init happens, and it connects OK.
When I try to connect with Posh-SSH, the client and server protocols are exchanged, but no Key Exchange Init happens. It appears that Posh-SSH does not start the Key Exchange process.
PuTTY to AudioCodes - Working OK
Posh-SSH to AudioCodes - No Key Exchange
The error received is:
New-SSHSession: Session operation has timed out
I'd love to be able to automate processes on these systems, so would love your help in getting this connection to work!
What extra information do you need to help identify the problem?
Thanks,
Finn

Research direction
Start by reproducing the timeout with New-SSHSession against an AudioCodes Mediant 2600, then compare the packet exchange with the working PuTTY connection. Investigate why Posh-SSH exchanges client and server protocols but does not begin Key Exchange Init. Done means the SSH key exchange starts and the session connects successfully.
