Description

Can the Cisco-Enable module be updated to support SSH? Not a lot of telnet around these days and I'm working with some darn old equipment.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the existing Cisco Enable module (cisco enable.c) in hydra's source code and study how other modules implement SSH connections (e.g., ssh.c). Look into the hydra module API and the libssh library for integration. Add support for SSH to the Cisco Enable module while retaining telnet fallback.
