Hello,
I would like to ask please what is the correct way to check for exit code in paramiko. For some devices when the "show version" works fine it gives exit code as 0, for other devices where also "show version" works fine it shows the exit code as 255
Example:

Example:
>>> ssh.connect(hostname, port, username, password, look_for_keys=False)
>>> stdin,stdout,stderr = ssh.exec_command('show version')
>>> Exit = (stdout.channel.recv_exit_status())
>>> ssh.close()
>>> print (Exit)
255Here is the device output.Output:RP/0/0/CPU0:vPE4-XR#show version
