0001232: Issue for telnet/ssh connection to MeruOS 4.1
We ran into an issue with the MeruOS 4.1 when we want to do wireless deassociation. In fact, when we try to connect using SSH or Telnet, the module will fail saying that the Login failed. Looking deeper at the issue, it appears that the controller in not returning the proper prompt information, so PacketFence thinks the login failed.

We experienced the issue with MeruOS 4.1-55. We do NOT have the issue with the 4.0 version. Vendor as been notified, and it appears that version 4.2 will correct the problem. We will validate in lab.
No tags attached.

Issue has been reproduced in lab using 4.1-55. I will attempt to find a way to overcome that problem.

Adjusting the regexp in the Meru/nas-pb.yml seems to have fixed the issue.

MeruOS :
    prompt : '/[\/a-zA-Z0-9._-]+(\([0-9]+\))? ?(?:\(config[^)]*\))? ?[#>] ?$/'

Nice fix.

I'm thinking that one day we might want to consolidate all our nas-pb files into one since there's a selector mechanism provided. Also, we should offer them upstream. He integrated my Extreme one.
