    Curious, what vendor is this?

    For the record, this has come up a couple times recently. This is another good case for moving to the driver model. By the looks of the prompt style it's probably a Brocade device. (The hint is the User Name: prompt)

    For what it's worth, Netmiko has support for Brocade but it's extremely limited and I don't think it has any support for user-based enable.
