Hi!

I need to send commands via ssh to Allied Telesis network devices. The problem is that Ansible requires the value of the ansible\_network\_os variable when working with network devices (for example, for cisco it is IOS), but for Allied Telesis, Ansible does not have ready-made templates, and those that do are not suitable for this.  
Is it possible to send commands to the CLI via ssh in some other way?  
I have been struggling with this problem for several days, google does not give me the information I need.  
Thanks!
