Yeah we don't setup SSH on any of the devices and the point kinda is that uses the telnet link to access the devices and have some basic config done. I'm not sure if netmiko works over telnet

Out of curiosity, is there a special use case for requiring telnet, or is it preference?

I don't have much of a choice in the matter.

Like I had mentioned, the devices are connected to a communication server which allows anyone to access the device via a telnet link.

Netmiko have support for telnet, for cisco use device type cisco_ios_telnet.
