We have a switch that someone put in the field, but we cannot reach it. I added a layer 3 vlan interface on the VSP on site & can ping it. Is it possible to SSH from the VSP? I can see the other switch via LLDP & there is also an ISIS adjacency. I'm wondering if the gateway isn't configured.

Strangely, I can ping the IP, but when I try to SSH I get an unreachable message.

VSP4900:1>ping 10.1.1.254

Nevermind. If you exit down to exec mode the option is there.
