Hi all,

I am having issues with using Ansible on the HP Aruba 3810. This is due to the Aruba requesting a “Press any key to continue” action before it gets onto the CLI shell. Is there any way to tell Ansible to press a key after logging in via SSH? I will be very grateful if anyone could help me out here… I have attached the output to this post.

Thanks! 🙂
