I am hobbyist programmer. I am getting error using Renci.SshNet. It gives me following error at statement sshclient.Connect();

System.Net.Sockets.SocketException:'The attempted operation is not supported for the type of object referenced'

My code is

private void Rstbutton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
s_ipaddr = IPAddr.Text;

s_username = UsernameBox.Text;
s_password = PassBox.Password.ToString();
SecureString myPass = PassBox.SecurePassword;

using (var sshclient = new SshClient(s_ipaddr, s_username, s_password)) 
{
    sshclient.Connect();
}

}

I am using Renci.SshNet.dll directly in the reference no installation from Nuget.

Certain Cisco devices do not adhere to RFC4342 and do not reply if the client identifies first.
Since identifcation can be in random order it will give random connection issues because the SSH_MSG_KEXINIT will not be sent if the client is faster.

Since SSH.Net is not at fault and compatibility with Cisco (and possibly other) devices is something that can easily be supported I've written this modification.

Added LazyIdentification to the ConnectionInfo object to allow late identification in ProtocolVersionExchange.
Overloaded 'Start' function to keep the original functionality and tests intact.

Highly likely fixes issues sshnet#752, sshnet#778, sshnet#469 and might help with sshnet#798, sshnet#767, sshnet#807
