The Dude 7.21 cannot speak to my switch

RouterOS The Dude

I have a quite old switch, the ssh cannot be upgraded anymore.

when I connect my switch from the dude server it work:

[admin@MikroTik] > /system ssh 192.168.1.80 user=admin port=22
password:

so it is OK, it uses the old less secure cipher and this fine.

but on the logs of my switch, I have this error all 12ish seconds:

Time2026-06-25 20:44:26
GroupSSHS
Level6
DigestSSHS_VERSION_MISMATCH
DescriptionSSH client 192.168.1.7 failed to log in because of version mismatch.

Is there a specific configuration on The Dude app for the ssh version ?

The Dude is "abandonware", simply disable SSH probe.

Ok, it works.

but is there somethind to replace it ?

free, light, open source?

which can be able to listen the snmp of the switch and routers, and can be able to draw my network based on the mac addresses ?

Regards,

Benoit.
